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.

How it feels

Nine artists and filmmakers from Belgium and Congo meet in Kinshasa in 2010 to make a film about the 50th anniversary of Congo's independence. They each bring a different perspective and work together to talk about the past, the present, and what might come next.
