Screenings of Poetry Films

On Wednesday evening, we will experience poetry in a slightly different light. After a conversation with the selectors Heik Strunk and Petra Kolmančič in the City Cinema Ptuj, who will shed light on the development and importance of video poetry or poetry film, in various locations around the center of Ptuj, we will watch numerous Slovenian and foreign production poetry films, from animated, experimental to feature films, covering a wide variety of topics based on poetry from around the world. An exciting event that brings poetry to life with the visual medium of film and stirs the spirit with the universal language of art for both poetry lovers and film gourmands.
