Overview

La Poesia che si Vede is an international poetry-film and videopoetry competition based in Ancona, Italy, organized by Associazione Nie Wiem as part of the La Punta della Lingua poetry festival and in connection with the Corto Dorico film festival. It is notable for treating videopoetry as a 'total poetry' form, showcasing works that range from kinetic, sonic, and visual text to cine-poetry and filmed performance, without restrictions by genre or format. The festival is significant in the poetry-film circuit as a specialized international platform that awards the Franco Scataglini Prize and brings together jurors and entries from the worlds of both cinema and poetry.
