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

This documentary follows three Danish composers with unusual working methods. One turns library furniture into instruments with tape and a golf ball. Another finds inspiration in YouTube videos and struggles to play the same piece twice. The third composes using patterns from lacework, including the mistakes. The film shows their creative processes up close.

What happens

Komponist er en dansk dokumentarfilm fra 2014 instrueret af Ida Bach Jessen. Dokumentarfilm om tre anderledes tænkende komponister: Simon Steen-Andersen (vinder af Carl Nielsen-prisen), Henriette Groth og Eva Noer Kondrup. Den ene omdanner Den Sorte Diamants inventar til musikinstrumenter og tilføjer blot en masse gaffertape - og en golfbold. Den anden lader sig blandt andet inspirere af YouTube-videoer og kæmper en brav kamp for at spille det samme musikstykke to gange. Den tredje komponerer efter systemer, hun overfører fra kniplinger - inklusiv de fejl, der er i broderierne. Men alle tre skaber kompositionsmusik, der når magiske skylag og begejstrer både kritikere og publikum. Seerne kommer tæt på deres måde at tænker kreativt i forhold til metode og arbejdsproces.
