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

Kongejagt paa Hveen je dánský němý film z roku 1903. Režisérem je Peter Elfelt (1866–1931). Film trvá necelou minutu. Film zachycuje loveckou družinu se švédským a norským králem Oskarem II. a dánskými princi Kristiánem, Gustavem, Valdemarem a Jiřím na malém ostrově Hven, nacházejícím se v průlivu Öresund mezi Dánskem a Švédskem. Ostrov patřil do roku 1658 Dánsku a stal se známým především díky průkopnickým pozorováním dánského astronoma Tychona Brahe na ostrově v letech 1576–1597. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
