About this movie

In 2008, with digital photography on the rise, the Polaroid Corporation ceased production of all Polaroid instant film, the item that had made the company a household name. There begins the story of the international grassroots campaign to save the beloved, threatened format. TIME ZERO beautifully relates the history of this iconic American product, while capturing the passion of instant film fans around the world and the lengths to which they are going to save it from oblivion.

Ratings and reviews

My dad worked for Polaroid as a chemical engineer for years. Loved the cameras and the company. Was really nice to see a movie made about Polaroid just wish my Dad was still around to have seen it. He would have been proud of it ☺

As a photographer, I love film over digital any day and have fond memories of Polaroid photography in our family during the 70's and 80's. This movie was like catching up with a lost friend.
