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

Viktor mod verden er en dansk spillefilm fra 2023 instrueret af Christian Arhoff Andersen. 30-årige Viktor Leth har boet alene hele sit liv med sin mor, der er bange for alt. Viktor har levet sit liv gennem gamle danske film og ved absolut intet om virkeligheden, men da moren dør, overlades Viktor til sig selv. Han finder ud af at hans far, Charlie, stadig lever, og han beslutter sig for at opsøge ham i København. Viktor tror at hans far er jazzmusiker, men Charlie viser sig i stedet at være forsikringsmand i et stort, skrantende forsikringsselskab. Viktor viser sig dog at have et kæmpe talent for forsikringer pga. sin mors store frygt og Charlie forsøger at bruge Viktor til at redde hele selskabet. Samtidig møder Viktor møder Josefine, en utrolig uheldig medarbejder, hvis liv har været en lang ulykke og de to ser noget i hinanden. Men da hele kampagnen for at redde selskabet ender med at handle om Viktor, må han tage et valg: Vil han spille den rolle hans far vil have ham til at spille for at redde selskabet, eller skal han gå sine egne veje?
