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

Afdeling D er en kortfilm instrueret af Carlos Oliveira efter eget manuskript. En dreng skal opereres. Mens han venter på operationen bliver han optaget af Afdeling Ds øvrige patienter og ansatte - en døende mand og en mystisk læge. Sammen med dem lærer han noget om døden. Og på mærkværdig vis finder drengen og den døende mand ud af, at de måske har mere tilfælles end først antaget. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
