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 is a collection of films that are exactly one minute long, including credits. They are made by various filmmakers and distributed by a foundation. The restriction of time pushes creators to be inventive in their storytelling.

What happens

One Minutes zijn korte filmpjes van exact een minuut (zestig seconden), inclusief aftiteling. One Minutes worden wereldwijd verspreid door The One Minutes Foundation. Film is een hulpmiddel voor communicatie en expressie zonder culturele of taalkundige barrières. One Minutes omarmt dit door van video een toegankelijk medium te maken door slechts één beperking te bieden: tijd. Een minuut is een tijdsmaat die over de hele wereld wordt gebruikt om de dag in delen. De vertrouwdheid en begrenzing in One Minutes prikkelt en daagt filmmakers uit in hun artistieke proces.
