DESCRIPTION:If poetry had a pop icon\, Mary Oliver would be it. Celebrated 
 best-selling poet\, Pulitzer Prize-winner\, lover of dogs and long walks i
 n the woods\, openly queer but intensely private\, Oliver was America’s 
 unlikely contemporary mystic\, stalking the ponds and forests of Cape Cod 
 for nearly fifty years in order to open herself—and her readers—to the
  known and unknowable world. From a lonely childhood to literary fame\, Ol
 iver’s life was shaped by devotion to nature\, paying attention\, and th
 e long journey toward learning to love and to be loved. Her poems inspire 
 liberals and conservatives\, atheists and believers\, naturalists and urba
 nites\, speaking directly to contemporary anxieties about attention\, pres
 ence\, and the human relationship with the natural world—issues that fee
 l especially pressing in an era of climate crisis\, digital distraction\, 
 and social fragmentation.\n\nFeaturing interviews with her close friends\,
  including John Waters\, never-before-seen personal photos\, notebooks\, a
 nd correspondence from her archive\, and recitations of her work by Stephe
 n Colbert\, Lucy Dacus\, Steve Buscemi\, and Oprah Winfrey\, Mary Oliver: 
 Saved by the Beauty of the World considers the poet’s long lifetime of w
 ork in context\, capturing the uniqueness of her world and the natural bea
 uty that inspired her.\n\nThere is a second screening at 7PM.
