Kodachrome: the Movie: Experimental

Kodachrome was the most beautiful color film ever produced. National Geographic exclusively used it, photographers and filmmakers captured a World War, Hollywood stars, and colorful life around the globe was documented by generations of artists and amateurs. For 75 years it reigned. And then overnight it disappeared. On December 30th, 2010 if you didn't have your Kodachrome film turned in to the final lab developing it in the world, Dwayne's Photo, in Parsons, Kansas....you were out of luck. FOREVER.

Kodachrome: The Movie was created on many, many rolls of Kodachrome 40 Super 8, shot around the USA from August - Dec. 30th, 2010. The result is an experimental film scored by Ben Trimble (Fly Golden Eagle, Champagne Superchillin’). “Two filmmakers are out on the road with a few Super 8 cameras & actors, shooting the very last rolls of Kodachrome movie film before it’s too late...” was our pitch back in the day. It's proved to be true. Kodachrome is still dead and Kodak has no plans to ever bring it back.
