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 follows 105-year-old Mica Olip as she reflects on her life in the bilingual villages of southern Carinthia. It centers on the year 1976, when the Austrian government held a census to determine minority eligibility for bilingual road signs, a count that the Slovenian minority largely boycotted. In the mountain village of Sele, four boys decide to hijack the ballot box.
