Records. The comeback of the century? AMPLIFY! Online Film Festival has a documentary that helps explain why

Happy Record Store Day! If you’re not familiar, this is when 200 record shops across the country celebrate a love for the records and the independent music spirit. It also gives shoppers a chance to get their hands on exclusive LPs and EPs pressed especially for the day.

If you are a seasoned record collector or someone that has only just recently been seduced by the magic of vinyl; or maybe if you’re a just lover of all things analogue, then we’ve got a perfect film for you from our AMPLIFY! ONLINE FESTIVAL PROGRAMME.

Introducing the UK Premiere of
An Impossible Project

Dir. Jens Meurer | 2020 | Germany, Austria
Streaming on AMPLIFY! from 8 – 14 November

ABOUT THE FILM
When the first iPhone was being launched in 2008, former biologist Dr Florian Kaps was heroically battling to save the world’s last remaining Polaroid factory and to keep analogue film alive in a world increasingly taken over by the digital image.

For this ode to analogue, the filmmakers put their money where their mouth is, shooting only on 35mm film and recording the soundtrack direct to vinyl from a live performance by a 40-piece jazz orchestra. Rich in curiosity and humour, this beautiful documentary uses one man’s passion to celebrate the deep, cerebral and spiritual connections between humans, design and technology; proving the importance of keeping things real.
