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
Four Danish adults look back on their childhood experiences as long-term hospital patients. They recount the fear, loneliness, and pain they felt, as well as the resilience and courage that helped them survive. The film presents these personal memories in a simple, unadorned style.

What happens
Hospitalsbørn er en dansk dokumentarfilm fra 2007, der er instrueret af Lars Bo Kimergård. Denne film går tæt på fire voksne menneskers erindringer om at have været 'hospitalsbarn'. Else, Stine, Morten og Renate fortæller om indlæggelserne og de følelsesmæssige aspekter af oplevelserne. I erindringen mødes sorgen, følelsen af at blive ladt alene og rædslen for den hvide kittel hos den lille patient med barnets overlevelsesinstinkt, livskraft og tapperhed og bliver, i et enkelt og usminket filmsprog, til stærk indsigt i dramatiske og smertefulde øjeblikke, der havde afgørende betydning for de fire menneskers videre liv. Instruktøren er selv 'hospitalsbarn', men begyndte først som 40-årig at reflektere over hvilken betydning, det havde haft på udviklingen af hans personlighed. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
