Lizz Straight: Portrait of a Poet
A Documentary ∫∫∫ Director: Sateesh
Project Background
It was an honor to film the beauty of Lizz’s poetry & powerfully articulated perspective basically because she’s just real. Reading about her ‘Poetry Is…Prison Tour,’ brought me to tears. How many people show real love to people that society tends to disregard? Portrait of a Poet was an official selection of the Hollywood Black Film Festival.
