The Danish Poet
Director: Torrill Kove
Running Time: 15:00
Technique: Drawing on paper with computer rendering
Official Site: www.nfb.ca
Synopsis: Can we trace the chain of events that leads to our birth?
Is our existence just coincidence? Do little things matter? The
narrator of The Danish Poet considers these questions as we follow
Kasper, a poet whose creative well has run dry, on holiday to Norway
to meet the famous writer Sigrid Undset. As Kasper's quest for inspiration
unfolds, it appears that a spell of bad weather, an angry dog, slippery
barn planks, a careless postman, hungry goats and other seemingly
unrelated factors might play important roles it the big scheme of
things after all.
