Little Dark Poet

A poet, inverting the cliche of the starved artist in the garret, and immediately begins to compose. He has nobly romantic intentions, and begins composing a love poem, which is visualized in the style of silent cinema. Unfortunately, the poet’s darker urges keep intruding. A short film directed by Mike Booth and produced by the Bolebrothers in Bristol UK. Explores the idea of colourisation.
