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

Palle Nielsen - mig skal intet fattes er en dansk portrætfilm fra 2002 med instruktion og manuskript af Jytte Rex. Palle Nielsen (1920-2000) var en af sin tids største danske grafikere, og hans værker har også vakt stor genklang i udlandet. Der er en stilhed-før-stormen i Palle Nielsens billeder, en eksplosiv underliggende stemning, hvor mennesker og byer har indgået hemmelighedsfulde alliancer med hinanden - for eksempel i billedserierne Den fortryllede by, Parklandet, Nekropolis, Den store Verdensbunker, Orfeus og Eurydike, Lethe, Narcissus, Miraklernes Tid, Mennesker i den forladte by. Filmen er både et billeddigt over denne store kunstner og et forsøg på at pejle sig ind i Palle Nielsens særegne univers med ham selv som en stilfærdig guide. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
