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.

How it feels

The film imagines the private discussions behind the marriage of a Dutch prince and his Argentine bride. It takes real events as a starting point but fills in what might have been said behind closed doors.

What happens

De Kroon is een Nederlandse film uit 2004 van Peter de Baan, naar een scenario van Ger Beukenkamp. De film werd gemaakt naar aanleiding van de perikelen rond het huwelijk van Willem-Alexander en Máxima Zorreguieta. Het verhaal is gebaseerd op feiten, maar neemt vooral de vrijheid om in te vullen wat er achter gesloten deuren is gebeurd en besproken. De film werd vertoond als miniserie op tv in twee delen.
