Fordlândia Panacea


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 Portuguese artist and filmmaker examines the failed Fordlandia project in the Amazon. The film reflects on the remnants of Henry Ford's rubber plantation town and the people who lived there.
