Time Zero: The Last Year of Polaroid Film (2012)

Polaroid stopped making instant film in 2008, and they ceased production of instant cameras the year before. Those two announcements signaled the end of an era -- and the end of an art form. Polaroid artists around the world were in mourning, trying to ration their dwindling supplies of instant film to prolong the inevitable demise of their passion (and for many, their livelihood).

This documentary -- produced, directed and shot by an award-winning Polaroid photographer and first-time filmmaker -- tells the story of the end of Polaroid instant film.
