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

Malkia wa Bwejuu er en film instrueret af Christian Rask, Iben Djuraas. Filmen tager os med til Zanzibar i Det Indiske Ocean ud for Tanzanias kyst. Vi møder straks de blændende hvide sandstrande, hvor kvinder og mænd færdes for at supplere deres små indkomster. Men det kniber! Vi færdes blandt kvinder i farvestrålende kangaer med markante budskaber trykt på stoffet. En gruppe kvinder har en stor plan, et projekt, der skal give dem større indtægter. Hvordan vil de bruge pengene? Kan de øgede midler gøre fremtiden bedre for dem og deres børn? (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
