Description
The film works of Paul Yates are distinguished by the same creative risk taking as his poetry and painting. His highly critically acclaimed MASTERS OF THE CANVAS, RETURN JOURNEY, NATIONAL POETRY DAY SERIES, THE STORY OF A SECRET and TWELVE MONTHS OF MOURNE have won various awards and intrigued and delighted audiences the world over.
Winner of the prestigious New York film and television ‘Best Direction’ award these twelve short films form a unique record of the year 2010 from January to December in the magical Kingdom of Mourne in Northern Ireland. Exquisitely shot and accompanied by Yates’s mesmeric narration each film portrays the poet’s personal visions of Mourne, it’s people, folklore and natural beauty.
