A short film documenting what was referred to as “The International Poetry Incarnation�. It was billed as Great Britain’s first full-scale “happening�, with the world’s leading Beat poets together under one roof at the Royal Albert Hall on June 11, 1965, for an evening of near-hallucinatory revelry. It came to be seen as one of the cultural high points of the Swinging Sixties.
