band-aids & other temporary healings

Filmed on location at Kenkeleba House Garden in the East Village, this poignant film contemplates how poetry can entrap, rather than release, past traumas and hardships. Word: Collected Poetry is a video anthology of spoken word poems brought to life, adapted from the work of four poets living in New York City. Created by Pat Heywood and Jamil McGinnis in partnership with Urban Word NYC.
