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

Et sikkert sted er en dansk kortfilm fra 2011, der er instrueret af Simon Lykke. Den ellers så glade dreng Sebastian er i gang med et hemmeligt byggeprojekt, som han forventer vil ændre hele hans verden. For at nå byggeprojektets deadline, holder han fri fra skole på ubestemt tid. Nu handler det bare om at holde det skjult for hans far. For selvom far er sød og forstående, forvandler han sig efter et par øl til en voldelig 'fremmed', som Sebastian har svært ved at genkende. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
