What Is V. About?

The premise of V. without spoilers.

A visual interpretation of Tony Harrison’s poem “v.”, which explores the many meanings of the letter—victory, versus, verses, and more. The film opens with a scene in a Leeds graveyard where graffiti defaces the poet’s parents’ headstone, then expands to examine social divisions, rivalries, hopes and the poet’s own identity within British society.
