Watch poetry in motion with David Reviews ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Pick of the Day: Johan Kramer's "Holy Mats"
Directed and written by Johan Kramer, the short is about an inspiring Haiku master from Norway, Mats Matsen, who suffered from a serious writer’s block till the moment his grandmother gave him a surprising gift.
The film is shot and edited, exactly in the same, ordered structure as a real Haiku. This means, the short is arranged in 3 lines (chapters): the first one with 5 (words) shots, the second chapter with 7 (words) shots and ending with 5 (words) shots.
Check out the film and read the 5 star review here.
