Instant Life

The three films you will see are shot-for-shot reproductions of the compilation film INSTANT LIFE (1981). Each film in INSTANT LIFE (1981) was a remake of an earlier film also called INSTANT LIFE (1941). The earlier INSTANT LIFE (1941) was a single film, not a compilation. In 2017, we decided to recreate INSTANT LIFE (1981). We did not attempt to recreate INSTANT LIFE (1941) because that Instant Life is lost. INSTANT LIFE (1941) was a silent film presented with live musical accompaniment. After the show, audience members received a printed riddle. INSTANT LIFE (1981) is a sound film. The riddle is part of the film. No answer to the riddle exists.
