A Poetry Film Goes to the Moon
“It is a beautiful poem, and a wonderful short poetry film with an expansive, hopeful message… worthy of archiving for generations…” ~ Dr. Samuel Peralta (The Curator and Payload Coordinator of the “The Polaris Collection” Lunar Codex time capsule)
.
River of Songs is a short film written and directed by Kalpna Singh-Chitnis. The film is a visual translation of “River of Songs” poems from Bare Soul narrated by the poet herself.
River of Songs have been included in The Polaris Collection, Lunar Codex time capsule and will head to the Moon with SpaceX launching in 2023 to the Lunar South Pole with Astrobotic Technologies’ Griffin Lander / NASA VIPER Rover.

I opened my eyes to find poetry before me.
I turned my back on it to face reality,
ever since I’m transformed into a river of songs…
River of Songs
