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
A six-year-old Serbian girl named Maja starts at a Danish daycare where she cannot understand anyone. She keeps to herself and has a secret goal that often leads to misunderstandings with the staff and other kids. After a long day, her parents pick her up and her real day begins.

What happens
Maja er en dansk kortfilm fra 2018 instrueret af Marijana Jankovic. Maja, en serbisk pige på seks år, bliver en tidlig morgen afleveret i børnehaven af sine forældre. De er lige flyttet til Danmark, så hverken Maja eller hendes forældre kan forstå eller tale dansk. I børnehaven holder hun sig for sig selv. Hun har sin egen hemmelige dagsorden, som også er grunden til at hun ofte ender i situationer med de andre børn og voksne, hvor hun bliver misforstået. Pædagogen Erling prøver at komme hende i møde. Efter en lang og ensom dag i børnehaven, bliver Maja endelig hentet af sine forældre. Og lige som man skulle tro at hendes dag er ved at være slut, skal den først lige til at begynde.
