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

Upstairs er en kortfilm instrueret af Jesper Maintz efter manuskript af Jesper Maintz, Jacob Weinreich. Jonas har ondt i forholdet og føler sig trængt op i en krog af sin altid småspisende og storsnakkende kæreste. Panisk gør han forholdet forbi og flytter ind i en skodlejlighed for at dyrke cigaretter, øl og fisse med sine barvenner. Overboen, det store brød Frank, er ikke bleg for at dele ud af sin selvbestaltede ekspertise i kvinder og forhold, og den kække kioskejer fremviser gerne bagkataloget over sine mange scoringer, som han gemmer i sin iPhone. Rie spøger dog stadig, også rent bogstaveligt, og Jonas indser snart, at ikke alt kan drikkes væk - specielt ikke den overrumplende tilværelse som single. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
