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

Lá Fora (Portugiesisch für: Da draußen) ist ein Filmdrama des portugiesischen Regisseurs Fernando Lopes aus dem Jahr 2004. Der Film ist, vor 98 Octanas (2006) und Os Sorrisos do Destino (2009), der erste einer inoffiziellen Trilogie des Regisseurs, in der er die Formen der Einsamkeit des modernen Menschen in einer zunehmend von Technologie und materiellem Wohlstand dominierten Gesellschaft thematisiert.
