A treat for poetry lovers, bibliophiles and local heritage enthusiasts alike, Catcher Media present their new film at this year’s Ledbury Poetry Festival. The 50-minute film, Printing Poetry Aloud.
Based in Herefordshire for nearly 50 years, Glenn Storhaug, through Five Seasons Press, has been creating affordable poetry books and collectible editions featuring an impressive range of poets, including Frances Horovitz, Gary Snyder, Allen Ginsberg, Anne Stevenson and Wendell Berry.
This intimate portrait celebrates Glenn’s work as he shares stories about the poets he has collaborated with and the books he has created. Poets Geraldine Monk and Paul Merchant, and printer Graeme Hobbs also feature in the film.
A Q&A with Glenn Storhaug and Rick Goldsmith, director of the film, follows the screening.
Catcher Media’s other heritage films include Chewing The Cud, Stories From The Hop Yards and Carousel (based on the Derek Evans Studio Archive)
With thanks to the Elmley Foundation and the Beaumont Trust for funding the project. #fiveseasons #letterpressprinting #herefordshire
