The Red Room Company (www.redroomcompany.org) commissioned eight poets from across the country to each write a poem that would be raced by thoroughbred pigeons on August 3, 2008. Punters studied an online form guide of the poets, pigeons and poems that flew, and made "bets" by donation. The birds homed from Stanwell Tops to Mt Ousley on NSW's South Coast, covering about 60km between 15 and 20 minutes. "The Race Day" video features interviews with punters, pigeons and poets, plus poem readings and glorious footage of the South Coast of NSW Australia. Directed by Andrew Garrick and produced by Johanna Featherstone. Find out more about the project at www.pigeonpoetry.com
