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

Grünfeld - ukjent opphav er en norsk dokumentarfilm fra 2005 av Nina Grünfeld. Filmen beskriver letingen opplysninger om Berthold Grünfelds jødiske mor som var fra Slovakia og hvordan Grünfeld forholder seg til opplysningene som kommer fram. Berthold Grünfeld var kommet til Norge som syvåring i 1939 etter å ha vokst opp hos katolske fosterforeldre i Bratislava. Hans mor Frederika Grünfeld viste seg å ha vært prostituert og var blitt utvist fra Slovakia til Ungarn. Under den andre verdenskrig ble hun sendt til Polen, antagelig til utryddelsesleiren Sobibór.
