Emily Dickinson (1830-1886) was an American poet born in Amherst, Massachusetts. She was regarded one of the most important female authors of the US in late 20th Century.
The script is created by director Patricia Ariza with three actresses reading out Emily's poems, discussing her life with theatre and dance. The actresses explore between the lines and try to have a glimpse of her desire and motivation as a female poet.
