Bolts of Melody

It’s poetic, musical, funny, moving. It’s the story of two people entering Possibility, a place populated by Emily Dickinson’s words. This place confronts them with a loss they suffered. Ouch. Progressively we see these characters relying on each other and on these poems. It helps them find the words they are missing, until they find their own internal poetry. Between the silences and the glances, the humour and the joy reappear. Finally, poetry enables them to find new impulses of life: the famous Bolts of Melody.
