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
This documentary examines the medieval worldview through the visionary works of the German nun Hildegard von Bingen. It combines text, animated illustrations and music to convey her ideas about humanity's role in maintaining balance in the universe.

What happens
Himmelstorm er en dansk dokumentarfilm fra 2000, der er skrevet og instrueret af Kassandra Wellendorf. En visuelt fabulerende dokumentarfilm om middelalderens verdensbillede med udgangspunkt i den tyske nonne Hildegard von Bingens enestående værker. Hildegard von Bingen (1098-1179) fik gennem hele sit liv visioner ved højlys dag. Visionerne var guddommelige og viste hende, hvordan det var menneskets ansvar at genskabe og opretholde balancen i universet. I Hildegaard von Bingens tekster blandes etik, religion og naturkundskab med sanselige registreringer af den fysiske verden. I filmen formidles dette helhedssyn i en flydende montage af skrift, animerede illustrationer og musik. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
