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
Over five years, this documentary follows artist Kristian von Hornsleth as he tries to build a huge star-shaped steel sculpture filled with DNA from thousands of people and sink it into the deepest part of the ocean. The project drains his personal life and finances, and he gets caught up with a con artist along the way.

What happens
Hornsleth - På dybt vand er en dansk dokumentarfilm af Theis Molin. Filmen følger kunstneren Kristian von Hornsleth over fem år i tilblivelsen af hans verdensompændende kunstværk Deep Storage Project, hvor en 8 x 11 meter stjerneformet stålskulptur med DNA fra 4.000 mennesker nedsænkes i Marianergraven. DNA'et stammer fra blodprøver samlet ved udstillinger og events over hele verden. Projektet tærer på privatlivet og økonomien og undervejs falder Hornsleth i kløerne på en svindler. Filmen havde verdenspremiere på Copenhagen International Documentary Festival d. 10. november 2014 på Bremen Teater og blev vist for første gang på tv d. 18. november 2014, som en del af DR2's Dokumania.
