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

A filmmaker reflects on his own hair, which has been long and black and is now white, and has not been cut since 1982. The documentary blends real events with poetry and fiction, connecting the story of Samson and Delilah, the journey of death camp victims, and thoughts on life's meaning.
