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

Där mitt hjärta slår är en dokumentärfilm från år 2012, regisserad och producerad av den svensk-kurdiska journalisten Khazar Fatemi. År 1989 flydde Khazar Fatemi och hennes familj, som är av kurdisk börd, det krigshärjade Afghanistan där de hade gömt sig efter flykten från Iran sju år tidigare. 20 år senare återvände hon till Afghanistan som journalist för att dokumentera hur vanliga människors liv påverkats av de krig som drabbat landet. Filmen har visats på SVT, tyska ZDF och kommer snart att visas på BBC. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
