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 short documentary filmed over two years in Porto. It follows the daily life on bus line 78 as it travels from wealthy neighborhoods into poorer areas, passing through construction zones related to the city's year as European Capital of Culture.

What happens
Próxima Paragem (portugiesisch: „Nächste Haltestelle“) ist ein dokumentarischer Kurzfilm der portugiesischen Regisseurin Catarina Mourão aus dem Jahr 2001. Über zwei Jahre filmte Mourão in Porto den Alltag in den Bussen der Linie 78. Sie führt von den reichen Vierteln der Stadt in sozialschwache Wohngebiete und streift dabei jene Zonen, in denen die meisten Arbeiten anlässlich der Ernennung Portos zur Kulturhauptstadt Europas des Jahres 2001 durchgeführt wurden.
