Synopsis:
Visual poetry, LGP poetry, the poetry of the body, of voice, of dance and music, in the same grasp – the poetry of the moment, the meaning of life.
“Take these broken wings and learn to fly / All your life you were only waiting for this moment to arise / Take these sunken eyes and learn to see / All your life you were only waiting for this moment to be free / Take these broken wings and learn to fly / All your life you were only waiting for this moment to arise / Black bird fly, black bird fly… into the light of the dark black night.” (in Blackbird – Beatles)
Synopsis:
Communication, by means of gesture and word, leads Man to a civilizational confrontation, to a philosophical debate about the Ideas that build the world. Narrative and dramatic genres open space for the lyrical genre, where prose and verse construct the movements and phrases necessary for the various questions of Man’s existence, within a universal pattern, where poetry reaches Man, till the end of Man’s terrestrial existence.
