Paul Muldoon: Laoithe is Lirici (A Life in Lyrics)

This screening has been postponed but will be rescheduled in the future.

This feature-length documentary film about the Pulitzer Prize-winning Irish writer Paul Muldoon creatively composes the story of Muldoon’s life through poems and performances of his song lyrics, while chronicling his beginnings as a radio producer with the BBC in Belfast to his position as a professor of poetry at Princeton. Featuring Paul Simon, Liam Neeson, PJ Harvey, Bono, Ruth Negga, Paul Brady, and Iarla Ó Lionáird, amongst others, and using Muldoon’s own words, LAOITHE IS LIRICI is an imaginative and innovative tribute to a great literary mind.

Following the film, Paul Muldoon will be in attendance for an in-person Q&A.
