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 1920 Belgian film is the first Flemish feature film. It is a drama in five parts performed by members of the Royal Dutch Theatre. The film adapts a stage play and is noted more for its historical significance than its artistic quality.
