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

Grenzenlos ist ein Dokumentarfilm von Josephine Landertinger Forero. Der Film erzählt über den Alltag drei binationaler Paare aus Berlin. Er ist in einer Zeit entstanden, in der über Migranten in Deutschland hauptsächlich negative Berichterstattung in den gängigen Medien zu rezipieren war. Im Film sind binationale Paare ein positives Beispiel, die der Gesellschaft zeigen, wie sie toleranter und inklusiver werden kann. Das multimediale Projekt Grenzenlos besteht aus einem 45-minütigen Dokumentarfilm sowie aus einer Website mit Fotos, Audiostücken und Artikeln, in denen weitere binationale Paare und deren Geschichten vorgestellt werden.
