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.

How it feels

A man dreams of a woman who dreams of oranges and lampposts. He receives a message from a woman he lost long ago, and she describes feeling distant and unable to connect with the world around her.

What happens

Appelsiner og Lygtepæle er en dansk kortfilm fra 2013 instrueret af Thor Hampus Bang efter eget manuskript. En mand drømmer om en kvinde, der drømmer om appelsiner og lygtepæle. En mand drømmer, at han får en besked fra en kvinde, han for længst har mistet. Beskeden beskriver kvindens sindstilstand og hendes syn på sin omverden. Hun er distanceret og ude af stand til at være en del af det, hun ser. Hun vil gerne være som andre og frygter rollen som udenforstående. Filmen tager udgangspunkt i Christoffer Ugilt Jensens digt "Appelsiner & lygtepæle" og er en del af Aarhus Festuge-projektet Digterfilm, hvor fem digte blev omsat til fem kortfilm.
