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 medieval French chain dance that survives only in the Faroe Islands. The film uses subjective imagery and editing to capture the dance's ritual ecstasy and communal joy.

What happens
Regin Smidur er en dokumentarfilm fra 2003 instrueret af Katrin Ottarsdóttir. En dans fra det 12. århundredes Frankrig. Engang var dansen populær over hele Vesteuropa. Men kun på de fjerne Færøer har dansen overlevet som en levende tradition. Det er en subjektiv tolkning af kædedansen. Gennem intense og rå billeder, lyd og klip, fanger filmen dansens ånd og glæde, som nærmer sig trance og ekstase. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
