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 documentary about a yearly pilgrimage in northern Portugal where thousands of people gather on a beach to honor Saint Bartholomew. The film looks at the participants from different ages and backgrounds and suggests that their everyday lives are just a long wait for this annual event.

What happens
Água Fria (zu dt.: Kaltes Wasser) ist ein Dokumentarfilm des portugiesischen Regisseurs Pedro Neves aus dem Jahr 2011. Jedes Jahr im August kommen Tausende von Wallfahrern zur Verehrung des heiligen Bartholomäus an den Strand des nordportugiesischen Dorfes Mar. Die Prozession führt Menschen verschiedenen Alters und sozialer Herkunft für kurze Zeit zusammen. Neves nähert sich den Beweggründen der Pilger und es scheint so, als sei ihr Alltag nur die Wartezeit zwischen der jährlichen Wallfahrt. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
