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 examines how young Danish-Somali men were recruited by the terror group Al-Shabaab. It focuses on one specific case: a Danish man from Rødovre who carried out a suicide bombing at a medical graduation ceremony in Mogadishu in 2009.

What happens

Krigerne fra Nord er en dansk dokumentarfilm fra 2014, der er instrueret af Søren Steen Jespersen og Nasib Farah. I december 2009 går en selvmordsbomber ind til en translokation for 35 nyuddannede læger i Mogadishu og sprænger sig selv og 19 af de tilstedeværende i luften. Selvmordsbombere er hverdagskost i Somalia, men det særlige ved denne unge mand var, at han var dansker og fra Rødovre. Sagen får stort set ingen opmærksomhed i den danske presse - heller ikke selvom den somaliske præsident raser mod de 'udenlandske krigere', som tager til Somalia for at slå ihjel. For danske Abdi Rahman er ikke den eneste, der har ladet sig rekruttere til den somaliske terrorbevægelse Al-Shabaab. Han er blot en ud af 35-40 unge dansk-somalier, som PET mener er havnet i kløerne på Al-Shabaab. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
