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.

How it feels

This silent documentary shows winter activities around Copenhagen and its surroundings in 1917. People sled in Dyrehaven, an orchestra plays, and horses pull sleighs. There are races, ice skating, and brave swimmers taking cold dips in the water.
