Wim Wenders: Instant Stories
As well as being an acclaimed filmmaker and a member of the New German Cinema movement, Wim Wenders (b. 1945) has also made an international name for himself as a photographer, with shows all over the world. He now opens a treasure chest of Polaroids taken during the 1970s and 1980s.
Here are portraits of friends, actors and personal heroes; souvenirs of places and events from the life of a young travelling filmmaker; impressions of his first trips to the US, shots of movie icons on American TV screens, the cinemas of provincial Germany in the 1970s, and much more. The adventure of shooting films around the world becomes an almanac of adventure, curiosity and tranquillity.
Wenders' instant photographs are interwoven with his own stories, memories and flights of fancy that weave the images into an intimate and poetic journey. Instant Stories is a photographic road movie of the director's early years, as he rose to global fame with films such as The Scarlet Letter, Alice in the Cities, Wrong Move, Kings of the Road and The American Friend.

Instant karma (český)
Prudence je klasická šprtka, co má o lidech okolo sebe jasno: jsou líní, arogantní a nejradši by jim to všem dala pořádně sežrat. Po jedné karaoke noci se jí přání splní – zničehonic může na kohokoli přivolat okamžitou karmickou odplatu. Tahle superschopnost nefunguje jen na otravného spolužáka Quinta, který pracuje v záchranném centru pro mořské živočichy. Co když je však úplně jiný? Pru se o něm pokusí zjistit víc… a brzo v tom lítá až po uši.
Instant Karma
Lecsap az igazság – történjen jó vagy rossz. A betegesen maximalista Prudence Barnett hajlamos gyorsan ítélkezni tengerparti városkájának lusta, faragatlan és arrogáns lakói felett. A karmikus igazságszolgáltatással kapcsolatos álmai beteljesülnek, amikor a barátaival töltött este után másnap reggel képes azonnal igazságot osztani a környezetében.
Pru örömmel használja az erejét, a vandáloktól a gonosz pletykafészkekig mindenkit megbüntet. Csakhogy van valaki, akin hiába használja a képességét, mindig visszaütnek a próbálkozásai: Quint Erickson a semmirekellő párja a biológiaóráról. Quint bosszantóan jóképű és lenyűgözően nagylelkű, főleg, ha a helyi tengeri állatok megsegítésére alapított menhelyről van szó. Pru a jobb jegy reményében önkéntesnek jelentkezik a menhelyen, és jó néhány nagy igazságra rádöbben a kisvidrákkal, a természet megbolygatásával és a félreérthető romantikus jelzésekkel kapcsolatban– persze nem feltétlenül ebben a sorrendben. Újdonsült karmikus képessége nyomán világossá válik számára, milyen vékony a határvonal az erény és a hivalkodás, a nagylelkűség és az önzés… a szerelem és a gyűlölet… meg a végzet között.

Wim Wendres Instant Stories
Globetrotting filmmaker Wim Wenders always takes his old panorama camera with him, using it whenever the sheer wealth of what he sees and the impression it leaves on him breaks the normal scale of things. Infinite landscapes, endless horizons, deserts, and mountain ranges overwhelm by their emptiness and silence, street fronts in Havana, Houston, Berlin, or Jerusalem offer deep insights into the shallows of civilization. Wenders' photographs are pictures of a world almost devoid of humans, a natural or man-made world viewed from a distance. They shed light on the many guises the surface of the earth dons and attest to Wenders' contemplative and amazed gaze. This gaze, of course, didn't stop at September 11 and delivered haunting photos of Ground Zero taken shortly after the attack. With poetic comments by the artist on all the pictures, the book is both a portrait of the world as encountered by the photographer and a portrait of the photographer as reflected in his vision of the world.
