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

The filmmaker, Philipp Hartmann, creates a 76 minute movie where each minute represents one year of his life. The film follows this rule strictly, especially in its final four minutes. A cable car ride provides a visual metaphor for the duration of a single shot.
