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

This Mechanical Place er en dansk dokumentarfilm fra 2017 instrueret af Jakob Ohrt og Oliver R. Jennings. 'This Mechanical Place' kombinerer optagelser af tunede traktorer, højoktans-grafik og et dekonstrueret eurodance-soundtrack af Danny L. Harle. Jakob Ohrt og Oliver R. Jennings film er optaget til de europæiske mesterskaber i traktortræk, og undersøger temaer som modifikation og maskulinitet. Traktorerne selv er ude af stand til at pløje en normal mark. Maskinerne og deres mange hestekræfter har fundet et nyt formål, helt adskilt fra deres oprindelige funktion, og er nu i stedet dekoreret med skinnende krom og metalmaling i pangfarver.
