Little Big Community

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 series is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

What happens

Little Big Community is a Canadian documentary television series, which premiered in 2023 on APTN. Created to counter mainstream media narratives that often highlight indigenous communities only in terms of poverty and crisis, the series visits various indigenous communities throughout Canada to profile people who are making positive change. The series received an immediate renewal from APTN, such that series creator Angie-Pepper O'Bomsawin was already in production on the second season before the first season even premiered. The second season will expand its focus to include indigenous communities in the United States. The series received a Canadian Screen Award nomination for Best Factual Series at the 12th Canadian Screen Awards in 2024. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
