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

Black Tape er en dansk animationsfilm fra 2014 instrueret af Michelle Kranot og Uri Kranot. "Black Tape" er en abstrakt fortælling om dominans og konflikten mellem Israel og Palæstina. I filmen danser en israelsk soldat og en palæstinensisk aktivist en langsom tango. Flere soldater kommer til, og andre kampe opstår. Tangoen fortsætter og fremstiller på ubønhørlig vis den uforsonlige og tiltagende vold mellem parterne. Filmens animationer er baseret på nyhedsudsendelser og dokumentaroptagelser.
