Rams is a documentary film about German industrial designer Dieter Rams, directed by Gary Hustwit.

Hustwit ran a successful Kickstarter campaign in 2016 to raise initial funding for the film. The film examines Rams' influence on modern design, his work for Braun and VitsΕ“, and his philosophies on sustainability and consumerism.

The film was announced in June 2016, and was released in the Fall 2018.

English musician Brian Eno composed the film's music. The soundtrack album of the score, Rams: Original Soundtrack Album, was first released on 2500 copies on white vinyl on 29 August 2020 for Record Store Day (postponed from April 18th). The CD release followed in 2021.
