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

Amor fati - et portræt af Peter Seeberg er en portrætfilm instrueret af Annette Riisager efter eget manuskript. Amor Fati betyder kærlighed til skæbnen. Denne portrætfilm undersøger, hvad forfatteren Peter Seeberg (1924-1999) forstår ved udtrykket "at komme overens med virkeligheden", og indkredser nogle af hans centrale litterære motiver: Eksistentialisme, identitet, virkelighed, absurdisme m.m. Filmen opsøger de steder Peter Seeberg har været knyttet til i Danmark, Tyskland og Frankrig, og samtidig følger vi hans indre rejse frem mod en identitet som menneske og forfatter. En udvikling, der går fra at være "ond på sin skæbne" til at elske den: Amor Fati. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
