Spiegelbezoek plot

Documentary about the poetry of the Dutch writer Leo Vroman. “Mirror visit” is a poem that Vroman published in 1998 shortly after his move from the American east coast - where the couple lived for almost fifty years - to Forth Worth, Texas, in the Netherlands. It is literally a life message. In the film, the then 83-year-old poet and ex-biologist is visited by musician and film composer Henny Vrienten. He wants to record a CD of Vroman's heartbreaking poems. Hans Keller filmed the meeting and also made a personal portrait in which the poet also reads from his own work.
