Beyond Baroque unveils the fourth season of the International Poetry Film Festival, Los Angeles, with a special opening night event that explores the intersection of poetry and cinema. The evening centers on Poetry Goes to the Movies, an anthology edited by Suzanne Lummis, and published under Beyond Baroque Books' Pacific Coast Poetry Series imprint, which delves into the relationship between the two art forms. The conversation brings together a panel of filmmakers and poets whose work is at the forefront of the conversation on how poetry translates to the screen, set in the heart of the world’s entertainment hub.
Following the panel, the opening night screening will showcase five standout films from this year’s official selection, each based on a poem. The full lineup of films will be presented the next day, Saturday, April 19, as part of the festival’s broader exploration of the vibrant fusion of poetry and cinema.
The Official Selection of the International Poetry Film Festival, Los Angeles features screenings of nearly 40 poem-based films from around the world, including selections from France, Canada, El Salvador, Ireland, the United States, among other countries. All films will be screened in The Wanda Coleman Theater.
The official schedule for the festival’s program will include a variety of experimental, narrative, documentary, and animated poem-based films. We are thrilled to showcase the work of filmmakers and poets pushing the boundaries of their artistic disciplines to create a whole new experience for lovers of both art forms.
If you’re a Beyond Baroque member, tickets are available at discounted prices.
Official schedule of screenings for Saturday, April 19, TBA.
