Shadowmsmiths interweaves moving images, music and poetry into synchronous montages and messages broken up by an interview narrative that asks some vital questions about literature and its place in the modern world. The poems run the gamut from comedic satire and a take on the small details of life to full on societal rants on the hypocrisies of our time. These poems are delivered in extremely beautiful and urban settings which act as apposing forces in the messages of the film.
