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
This silent film adapts a play by Henrik Ibsen about corruption in a small town. A businessman hides a secret from his past that threatens to destroy his reputation and relationships.

What happens

Filmadapsjonen av Samfundets støtter var et høydepunkt i produsent Edwin Thanhousers karriere. I hans senere år var den blant de prestasjonene som han elsket å minnes.
