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

I väntan på Jan Myrdals död är en svensk film från 2021. Regissörer var Bo Sjökvist och Bengt Löfgren. Filmen skildrar dokumentärt förhållandet mellan Jan Myrdal och Lasse Diding under Jan Myrdals sista tid i livet, när den rike Lasse Diding ställde ett hus till förfogande för att hysa Jan Myrdals stora bibliotek och Myrdal själv i Varberg. Filmen fick god kritik; genomgående åsikter hos recensenterna var att Myrdal var politiskt kontroversiell, men filmen underhållande. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
