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

A 1920 Danish documentary shows a motor race with cars and motorcycles in Nakskov. Then a fiction segment follows a farmer chasing a motorcyclist after a hen is run over, leading to a silly pursuit with a boat and a dramatic flight scene.

What happens

Motorløb i Nakskov er en film med ukendt instruktør. Ved motorløbet i Nakskov deltager både automobiler og motorcykler. Herefter følger optagelser til en fiktionsfilm, hvor en bonde sidder og kigger på biler og får en høne kørt over. Han skubber den første den bedste motorcyklist af sit køretøj og eftersætter misdæderne - med den døde høne i hånden. De når at sejle afsted med en færge, inden han når frem færgelejet. Han sætter efter i robåd. Der er også en dramatisk flugtscene med en besvimet kvinde og pistolskud. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
