The other week we had the opportunity to interview Sean Anders, the director of Instant Family. Instant Family is a true story; it’s actually his true story of how he and his wife decided to adopt children. Actually, they decided to adopt three children, all at once. The movie looks funny and something that families can immediately relate to or for anybody that has children or any familiarity with the foster care system.
Instant Family was filmed in Atlanta. I remember seeing the signs for filming locations around certain neighborhoods and hearing the extra casting calls from some friends of mine who do production. While it’s the true story of one family’s decision to adopt, the film is not preachy and brings the humor and fun that kids bring-while not glossing over the difficulties that raising any child can present. It’s a delicate balance that was accomplished by weaving in conversations that Anders and other newly adopted foster families had in real life.
