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
A short film about a man who uses violence and a woman who has been abused. They speak honestly about wanting to break their pattern of violence and find a life with love instead.

What happens
Magten over livet er en kortfilm instrueret af Mette Rix efter manuskript af Mette Rix. Magten over Livet er et portræt af to voksne mennesker, en voldsmand og en voldsramt kvinde, for hvem vold har været en stor del af deres parforhold. De to hovedpersoner fortæller nøgternt og med en stor portion selverkendelse, om hvordan de ønsker at slippe ud af det voldsmønster, der har holdt dem fanget. De længes begge mod et liv uden vold og hvor kærligheden kan slå faste rødder. Vejen er lang og fortiden er svær at slippe væk fra. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
