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

Enten eller er en dansk dokumentarfilm fra 2017 instrueret af Thora Lorentzen. Kewin og Thora har kendt hinanden siden 2005, og de har aldrig helt forstået, hvad deres forhold går ud på. De elsker ikke hinanden, og alligevel kan de ikke være uden hinanden i deres liv. Deres relation er som en ubrydelig naturlov – en uhelbredelig sygdom eller som en skønhedsplet, alt efter hvordan man betragter det. Måske vil enten Kewin eller Thora en dag træde ind i seernes liv. Og skulle de gøre det, så vid, at man aldrig kan vide, om det er halvdelen af et helt eller det hele af et halvt menneske, man har med at gøre. Mindst af alt ved de det selv.
