We are pleased to take part in this years Nithraid, the annual sail and row boat race and festival held just outside the RBC each August, with a debut documentary screening by locally born filmmaker Glenda Rome.
The film delves into geopoetics, a philosophy developed by Scottish poet and thinker Kenneth White, which emphasizes a deep connection between the mind, language, and the living world.
Lecturer in Environmental Humanities at the University of Glasgow’s Dumfries Campus, David Borthwick, will lead an informal discussion following the screening, touching on Geopoetics and the ways in which the film depicts landscape and ecology.
About the Director: Glenda is a Scottish filmmaker, originally from Dumfriesshire, whose cinematic work bridges art, environmental and human connection. For over two decades she has worked internationally on documentaries and community projects — from collaborating with Indigenous communities in the Ecuadorian rainforest and Iñupiat people in Alaska, to helping young and under-represented voices tell their own stories through film.
