reviews

TIME ZERO is an excellent, nostalgic film.

[O]verall, this is a great film for audiences of all ages with some amazing cinematography and effects.”

Sandy Cannon-Brown, Women in Film and Video

TIME ZERO offers up a myriad of reasons why that type of film was so important and in doing so, engages the audience in a thoughtful provocative debate about the vitality of instant photos in a world that has gone so far into the digital universe.”

John P. Hanlon, breitbart.com

“So what do you do when the only company that sources the medium in which you work just … stops making it?

[O]ver and over, the photographers return you to the story, to their love of what they do, and to their desire to keep doing it. It really is a particularly modern film, in that it’s pretty rare these days to run into the problem these people are facing.

You’ll have to track down a chance to see the movie for yourself sometime…”

“…I still believe it’s one of the best lighter-weight documentaries I saw this year — light in that this is not a doc addressing itself to a disaster; but one trying to tell the story of some people who are trying to save something they love: instant photography.”
