Open Air Cinema: The Poet (Kol, Šve, Nem / 2025)

A film about the neurotic poet's unsuspecting poetic reality, it deftly navigates between a comedy of discomfort and a moving drama about lost (and rediscovered) hope. A unique film with an even more unique main character.

Óscar Restrepo's love of poetry did not bring him fame. The "eternal dreamer", as he describes himself, has over the years completely succumbed to the cliché of the cursed poet – or as his more successful colleague puts it: he has turned into a poem, and a rather sad one at that. When he meets Yurlady, a talented teenager from a poor background, and begins to help her develop her poetic potential, she shines a ray of light into Óscar's life. But his insistence on introducing the girl to the whimsical world of poets may not be the best idea...
