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

Marble er en dansk kortfilm fra 2022 instrueret af Sofie Rødtnes Markussen. Safa er 5 år og går i børnehave. Safa er en sky og stille pige, der ikke har let ved at knytte bånd til de andre børn. Men hun har heldigvis den jævnaldrende Ludvig. En dag viser Ludvig Safa en hemmelig skat. Den er i en hule i træet bag ved børnehaven. Skatten består af forskellige dimser, chokoladepapir, en knækket cykelnøgle og to store dinosaurer, som Ludvig har taget fra børnehaven. Ludvig lover Safa at de kan dele deres hemmelighed, hvis også Safa finder noget til skatten. Safa ved godt hvad hun skal tage; den store glaskugle fra kuglebanen. Men da pædagogerne begynder at finde ud af, at der er ting der forsvinder, bliver Safa usikker: har hun gjort noget hun ikke må? Skal hun sige noget til de voksne om dinosaurerne i Ludvigs hule? Og hvad vil Ludvig sige til det? (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
