The 3D catalogue: film cases on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

The catalogue in 3D

The film shelves have a room of their own that you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real films from the same catalogue when you tell them what you feel like watching. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this film is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

What happens

Gunnar Rehlin – en liten film om att göra någon illa, är en svensk TV-film från 1999 av Killinggänget, regisserad av Tomas Alfredson. Filmen är en del av Killinggängets Fyra små filmer. Filmen är gjord som ett avsnitt ur den amerikanska dokumentärserien Insight och handlar om Killinggängets reklamkampanj emot filmkritikern Gunnar Rehlin. De har gjort reklamfilmer med slogans som Gunnar Rehlin – okarismatisk och tråkig, Gunnar Rehlin – har inte sex och Gunnar Rehlin – han utrotar folkslag. Gunnar går under jorden och försöker rentvå sitt namn med hjälp av sitt ombud Jan-Erik. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
