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 Danish-Pakistani filmmaker returns to Pakistan over 15 years to explore her family roots. She focuses on her cousin's daughter Saima, watching her grow up and eventually prepare for an arranged marriage. The film shows how both the filmmaker and her relatives change over time.

What happens
Moosa Lane er en dansk dokumentarfilm fra 2022 instrueret af Anita Mathal Hopland. Den danske dokumentarinstruktør Anita M. Hopland er vokset op med sin pakistanke far og norske mor i Danmark. Som 25-årig beslutter hun sig for at undersøge sin pakistanske familie gennem sit kamera og i løbet af de næste 15 år kommer hun tættere og tættere ind på livet af sin egen generation af unge i Pakistan. Anita vil undersøge hvad vores kulturelle og nationale ophav sætter af spor i os som mennesker. I Pakistan bliver hendes kusines datter Saima et anker og fikspunkt, indtil den dag hun skal giftes bort. Tiden går, de to familier forandrer sig, og det samme gør Hopland selv. Moosa Lane er en personlig familiefortælling i bredformat, hvor alle følelser får lov at farve lærredet undervejs. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
