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

Slip mine hænder er en dansk dokumentarfilm fra 2015 instrueret af Ala'A Mohsen. Med sorg i stemmen og et mørkt udtryk i ansigtet fortæller 42-årige Haider om sit liv i fangenskab under oprøret i Irak i 1991. Saddam Hussein havde netop opgivet krigen og forladt et krigsramt land i knæ. Selvom fortiden er dunkel og fyldt med smerte, ser Haider fremad med håbet om et trygt og værdigt liv for sine børn her i Danmark. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
