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
Levende musik for de døde er en film instrueret af Nicky Schmidt, Torsten Jepsen. Thuys bedstefar er blevet kørt over. Han var en gammel og agtet borger i lokalsamfundet. Han var veteran fra krigens tid. Derfor skal han have en standsmæssig begravelse. Hvad vil det sige? Filmen inviterer os med til begravelsen, så vi kan følge ceremonien ved selvsyn. Spillemanden har en betydningsfuld rolle. Den vietnamesiske tradition sørger for en god sidste rejse og for en stadig kontakt mellem de levende og døde. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
