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
In medieval Denmark, a married couple is torn apart by infertility. The wife finds solace in the church while the husband starts an affair with a younger woman. When a water spirit curses the wife, the husband must confront the supernatural to save her.

What happens
Nøcken er en dansk kortfilm fra 2018 instrueret af Nicolai G.H. Johansen. I middelalderen dominerer kirken samfundet, men i skoven lurer mørke kræfter. Karl og Dagmar lever udadtil et normalt liv, men indenfor hjemmets vægge har deres ufrivillige barnløshed revet dem fra hinanden. Mens Dagmar finder trøst i kristendommen, har Karl indledt en affære med den mange år yngre købmandsdatter Elena. Da Dagmar bliver ramt af Nøckens forbandelse, må Karl dog træde i karakter for at redde sin kone. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
