Part of the OLLI Winter 2027 CONNECTIONS film series. 

Most of you will be familiar with Mary Oliver's poetry, but if you're not, here's your chance! Mary Oliver: Saved by the Beauty of the World depicts the power of words and the marvels of nature to ?save our souls, one grasshopper, one great love, one poem at a time.” Featuring archival footage, never-before-seen personal photos, notebook pages, and original interviews, this film explores Oliver’s early days as a writer, the people and places that inspired her poetry, and the award-winning poems on nature, beauty, and love such as Wild Geese and The Journey that launched her to broad acclaim and solidified her place as one of America's most beloved contemporary poets.
