22nd TDF: Greek Premiere

Despite being caught in a digital frenzy, humanity is analog by nature – we are flawed, tangible and unique. Lately, our artificial offspring has turned against its creator, as fake news, trolling, information overload, and overdependence on social media are eating up our faith in the digital gospel. A playful and witty documentary that unfolds the underdog tale of a 21st century Don Quixote. Back in 2008, when old-school photography was falling out of date, an eccentric Austrian biologist embarked on a David vs. Goliath venture: he set out to save the last Polaroid factory in the world.
