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

Grillfesten i Tingbjerg er en dansk dokumentarfilm fra 2008 instrueret af Lars Borking og Emil Langballe. Dokumentar om livet i kolonihaven, hvor danskere og udlændinge mødes. Om dansk kolonihaveidyl, halalbøffer og kunsten at leve sammen på trods af forskelle. Formanden for kolonihaveforeningen bryder sig ikke om "halenegermusik" og råbende udlændinge, der slæber på fødderne. Alligevel har hun kastet sig ud i at lave en grillfest for at få danskere og udlændinge i haveforeningen til at mødes. Det er aldrig før lykkedes at holde fest sammen, og der er udfordringer nok for formanden. For hvad spiser "sådan nogle" til grillmad, og hvordan opretholder man viljen til fest, når hærværksmænd og gøende hunde gør deres for at spolere lysten til at mødes med "de fremmede".
