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
This documentary looks at the European Union's carbon credit trading system which started in 2005. It shows how the system was meant to cut CO2 emissions but instead became a target for fraud worth billions. The film explains how Denmark became a hub for the scam and why polluting has become cheaper than ever.

What happens
Varm luft for milliarder er en film instrueret af Tom Heinemann. EU's første klimakvote blev sat til salg i 2005. Idéen var, at handlen med kvoterne skulle reducere CO2-udledningen og dermed redde kloden fra den globale opvarmning. Men systemet er brudt sammen og Danmark blev i stedet centrum for en af verdens hurtigst voksende svindelnumre. Eksperter og Europol vurderer, at statskasserne rundt om i Europa mistede op mod 70 milliarder kroner til hackere og momssvindlere fra hele verden. Og aldrig før i menneskehedens historie er der udledt så meget CO2 som nu. Kvotesystemet er kollapset - og priserne er faldet med 90%. Det har derfor aldrig været billigere at forurene end det er i dag. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
