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

Hästmannen är en svenskfinländsk dokumentärfilm från 2006 i regi av Peter Gerdehag och Tell Johansson. Filmen handlar om hästbonden Stig-Anders Svensson (född 1945) som lever sitt liv i sin lilla stuga i byn Råskog på det småländska höglandet.

På sin gård har Svensson flera djur, bland annat tre ardennerhästar, som han använder i arbetet på gårdens åkrar och skogar. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
