Did you ever wonder what will the future of health-care hold? How will advances in medical A.I. change our lives? Will algorithms eclipse doctors entirely? We hope not. Instant Doctor is a short film to show appreciation for doctors and health-care human workers everywhere.

Inspired by a true story, the short is contextualized in the long arc of racism throughout US history, by utilizing news stories about racism from the past century as the canvas for each frame of the hand-painted animation.
