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

Köpgalna barn (originaltitel Consuming Kids: The Commercialization of Childhood) är en amerikansk dokumentärfilm från 2008 av Adriano Barbaro och Jeremy Earp som belyser hur amerikansk marknadsföring i allt större utsträckning riktar sig till barn i åldrarna 6-12, hur detta påverkar barnen och i förlängningen hur barn sedan påverkar sina föräldrar i deras val av produkter. Filmen sändes 2008 i Sveriges Television i programmet Dokument utifrån. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
