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

Traveling with Mr. T er en film instrueret af Andreas Møl Dalsgaard og Simon Lereng Wilmont. Troels er en ung mand med store problemer. Han nærmer sig tredive og er ved at forsumpe. Livet drukner i alkohol, stoffer og bristede ambitioner. To venner, Christian og Andreas, forsøger at hjælpe Troels. Han har altid drømt om at blive forfatter, og nu vil de give ham deadlines og opmuntring. De underskriver en kontrakt om at drømmebogen "Traveling with Mr. T" skal skrives på ét år. For Troels har talent. Ved at udleve sit talent håber de, at han kan vende tilbage til livet. En fortælling om kunsten og kærligheden. Om drømmes tveæggede karakter. De kan stråle kraftfuldt i mørket og vise vej, men de kan også fastlåse os i umulige ambitioner. Kunsten bliver undervejs en vildfarelse frem for udfrielse for Troels. Det er mødet med kærligheden, som løser ham af fortidens bånd og bringer ham tilbage til livet. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
