The
lyrical poem traces back to ancient Greece and is an art form of a
deeply personal expression of the poet’s felt emotions. Ken
Kelman wrote that “in the same way as the lyrical poem, through
it’s own available idiom the lyrical film is the direct
manifestation of feelings and thoughts, with the expressive
possibilities of plot, motion, music, dialogue, and images all muted in
themselves”1. The lyrical film
portrays the director as the invisible protagonist of the film as the
presence of his gaze can be felt behind the lens of the camera.
