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.

How it feels

A documentary about a group of girls in 4th grade and their friendships. It follows them at school and on a camp trip where small dramas about loyalty and status play out. The film shows how serious and important these relationships are to them, with boys only a distant concern.

What happens

Pigerne i 4.b er en børnefilm instrueret af Vibe Mogensen efter manuskript af Vibe Mogensen og Anders Riis-Hansen. Hjerteveninde, stenveninde, bedsteveninde - afgørende begreber for pigerne i 4.b. Denne dokumentarfilm handler om venindeskab på godt og ondt. Umærkeligt følger filmholdet pigerne i skolen og på lejr, hvor store dramaer udspiller sig. Dramaer med klassiske temaer og en arketypisk rollebesætning: prinsessen, rivalinden, hjælperen, budbringeren og alle de andre. Drengene eksisterer, men langt ude i følelsernes horisont. Forholdet til veninderne, dét er alvor. Det er dét, det hele handler om. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
