To be Loved

Poetry Expo 24

"Being Loved" warmly delves into the impression and distinction of love. Through time, faith, successes and failures, love discovers the essence of the human being in brush strokes and traces of dreams.

The short film was produced by artist Joseph Rojas, seeking to tell a story with hopeful airs, in which love was more than a requirement.

With fragments of the story "the filmmaker of the yellow ribbons" this short film leaves traces of what was a love story that evolved into life learning, and continues to shine, thanks to its warm and sincere tones.


The project is part of the subthemes Mental health narratives in poetry, and Literature as a tool for social equality.
