In a movie where humans lean towards passivity and biting their tongue, the nonhuman world seems to carry a deeper meaning. Therefore, analysing film frames, camera movement, visual motifs and sounds helps to better understand the director’s message – that of humans growing apart from themselves and each other as a result of living in a capitalist society. Poetry’s main character Mija and her exploration of creative writing serves to exemplify how poetry stands as a bridge between humanity and nature, trying to bring the two estranged sides together again; and a cure for alienation, by making the individual notice and reflect on their surroundings.
