Poet: Paul Farley | Nationality: U.K. | Filmmaker: Markus Soukup, Sam Meech, Steve Clarkson, Tim Brunsden
A black-and-white poetry film from 2011 which somehow escaped my attention until now. Paul Farley recites his poem in the soundtrack. The film was edited by Sam Meech, one of four people who share the credit for making the film. The others are Tim Brunsden, Steve Clarkson and Markus Soukup.
This was actually the second film to be made with this poem. The first came out in 2009, a performance-style video imaginatively shot by Paul Beasely.
