Review: Instant Dreams Is a Beautifully Flawed Marketing Flick

Since November 2017, there has been anxious hype around Instant Dreams--a documentary that is supposed to give the Instant film initiative a major pat on the back. The film, done by Willem Baptist, offers hypnotizing visuals while following the stories of a few key individuals who adore Polaroid and the culture.

Those visuals end up being some very gorgeous scenes mixed in with perplexing shots and motion graphics that cause someone to look away or be hypnotized without intense concentration. At the same time, Instant Dreams does very little to truly tell the stories of these folks and does even less to humanize them through the lens of objectivity. But overall, it ignores a few elephants in the room. .
