Following a call for applications in fall 2020, three poets were chosen by a jury to participate in the video co-creation project. At the same time, Vidéographe launched a call to its members. Filmmakers and poets were then paired up to collaborate on this completely new creation. The result of this collaboration is presented as a premiere during the FPM 2021.
