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

Telefonbesked fra mor er en dansk dokumentarfilm fra 2012, der er instrueret af Edda Ros. Filmen skildrer med humor og kærlighed den omgangsform, der præger forholdet mellem instruktøren og hendes maniodepressive mor. Moren elsker at lægge lange beskeder på datterens telefonsvarer, som giver et intimt indblik i hendes tankeunivers. Og hver gang moren indlægges, igangsættes en særlig rutine i familien.
