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 company takes away an old archivist's radio, leaving him with nothing. Then his filing cabinet opens into a fantasy world where he and a bullied janitor find joy and courage to stand up to their oppressive bosses.

What happens
Zigbrandtsens dans er en kortfilm, der er instrueret af Morten Kjems Juhl efter eget manuskript. Koncernens ledelse konfiskerer den gamle arkivar Zigbrandtsens transistor og afskærer ham fra sin musik og sine drømmerier - det sidste, han har tilbage i livet. Alt er slut. Lige indtil hans arkivskab åbner lågen for et eventyr, som Zigbrandtsen sammen med firmaets gårdfejer, den underkuede Motanze, forsvinder ind i. Her finder de to outsidere al den glæde, de mangler i den virkelige verden, samt ikke mindst modet til at gøre op med ledelsens benhårde og undertrykkende diktatur. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
