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

Min fars valg er en dansk dokumentarfilm skrevet og instrueret af Mikala Krogh. Min far hedder Torben Krogh og er journalist. Da jeg var barn, så jeg ikke min far særlig meget, fordi han altid var på arbejde. Jeg er stolt af min far, men jeg er også bange for, at jeg ligner ham alt for meget. En datter undersøger, hvordan hendes far har levet sit liv og hvilke konsekvenser, det har haft. Hun bruger kameraet til at stille nogle af de spørgsmål, hun aldrig har fået svar på. Det bliver til et portræt af en mand, der altid har stået i dilemmaet mellem karrieren og kærligheden. Hun vil lære af det og spørger nærmere ind til det. Han svarer, så godt han kan og står ved de valg, han har taget i sit liv. Filmen er en del af serien »Min ...«. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
