| Abstract: | Andersen’s film is an intimate portrait of the American poet Ruth Fainlight, now aged 94, presenting different fragments of the poet’s life. Fainlight is captured by Andersen at her home in London, making notes, on her walks, and in the seaside town of Brighton, with a photographer’s eye for composition and detail. Each image is carefully framed – Fainlight walking along the corridor, her green cardigan against green foliage, the book lined walls – and the film intentionally moves at a gentle pace, sometimes almost appearing to be a series of still images. In the film Fainlight talks off-screen, revealing fascinating insights into her life, her creative process, and how she is ‘in the hands of the poem’. Her intensely visual poetry and fiction touch on themes of time, memory, and loss – in the film she movingly recites her work ‘Somewhere Else Entirely’ composed after the death of her husband. |
