National Poetry Day, Carry Me Away
Film number 10 in the series for National Poetry Day!
Where to go to find an old-fashioned projector and a modern-day projectionist? The cultural cinema (and digital creativity centre) Watershed, Bristol of course.
Ewan Dunford gives a lovely reading of Matt Goodfellow‘s beautiful poem, Carry Me Away.
Thanks, Ewan, Matt and Watershed.
National Poetry Day is organised by the Forward Arts Foundation – if you have children or are a teacher you may be interested in this page on their website which features poetry teaching resources.

Did you, Liz! I think we are very lucky to have the Watershed in Bristol, where new media and old can exist side-by-side! I love the way Ewan reads this poem.
