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 group of young women share a flat in Stockholm, struggling with low-paying office jobs and the limited choices available to them in early 20th century Sweden. The film follows their daily lives, friendships, and small rebellions against a society that expects them to marry or serve.
