A Fanatic Heart: Geldof On Yeats
2016 · Movie · 98 min · ★ 1.0
Through performances of some of Yeats' most iconic poems by leading Irish and British cultural figures, Bob Geldof reveals how Yeats and others built the scaffolding of a new independent Ireland decades before the Rising - but how Yeats' vision for a modern, pluralist, inclusive Ireland was pushed aside by the narrow-minded Catholic elite of the new Free State.
