Meteorite Slice
Meteorite Slice Written by Grace Wilentz / Directed by Gabriela Concha Valcárcel 'Meteorite Slice' is the second poetry film in a trilogy created by poet Grace Wilentz (Ireland) and documentary maker Gabriela Concha Valcárcel (Peru). ‘Meteorite Slice’ takes as its starting point a slice of a meteorite displayed at the Ulster Museum in Belfast. The poem and film pause to consider the object and its memory. Inspired by the accidental cosmic vision of mistaking city lights for constellations, ‘Meteorite Slice’ meditates on innocence and creativity in seeing. Production of this film was supported by a literature bursary from the Arts Council of Ireland / An Chomhairle Ealaíon.
