Nine poems by Joseph Brodsky, filmed in nine short chapters with a performer, a musician and an actor.
Poems about the absence of someone, the in-ability to meet on the same time in the same place,
about being here, in a safe zone – and still – being far away from someone.
Produced in co-operation with Schaubühne Lindenfels Leipzig as part of the theater play „Letzte Verse aus dem Eis“ (2020).
