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

In post-war Kosovo, children sell cigarettes on the streets to survive. In nighttime monologues against the city backdrop, they share their stories of loss, hope, and fear.

What happens

Ønskebørn er en dokumentarfilm instrueret af Birgitte Stærmose efter manuskript af Peter Asmussen. I grænselandet mellem dokumentar og fiktion bevæger ØNSKEBØRN sig gennem efterkrigstidens Kosovo, hvor børn sælger cigaretter på gaden for at overleve. Om natten, med Pristina som dyster baggrundskulisse, fortæller børnene i monologer deres rystende historie om tabene, håbet for fremtiden og frygten. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
