Director William D. Caballero interweaves animation with live-action footage, creating an intimate confession about the courage required to transform pain into art.

If poetry had a pop icon, Mary Oliver would be it. The best-selling poet and Pulitzer Prize-winner’s words inspire liberals and conservatives, atheists and believers, naturalists and urbanites. She was America’s unlikely, contemporary mystic, stalking the ponds and forests of Cape Cod for nearly fifty years in order to open herself—and her readers—to the known and unknowable world. Sasha Waters’ beguiling portrait features poems read by Helena Bonham Carter, Steve Buscemi, Stephen Colbert, Lucy Dacus, and Oprah Winfrey.

The first screening will be followed by a Q&A with director/producer Sasha Waters.
