THE EXPERIENCE

Join us for a screening of Mary Oliver: Saved by the Beauty of the World hosted by our friends at QDoc! 

ON SCREEN: Mary Oliver: Saved by the Beauty of the World

2026. Directed by Sasha Waters. Runtime: 1 hour 31 minutes. 

Portrait of Mary Oliver, Pulitzer-winning poet and private queer icon, whose plainspoken wonder for woods, dogs, and living reaches readers across every divide. 

HOSTED BY: QDOC

QDoc is the only festival in the world devoted specifically to queer documentaries.

Founded in 2007, QDoc has shown award-winning films fresh from Sundance, Berlin, Hot Docs, Tribeca, Amsterdam and other top-tier festivals. We have shown historical films, personal stories, artist biographies, experimental work and topical films dealing with current controversies.

Visiting artists have included prominent filmmakers from all over the U.S. and from as far as Italy and Australia, who have participated in lively discussions after the screenings. We have hosted emerging filmmakers as well as 3 Academy Award winning directors, enabling dynamic audience interaction with artists.

Documentary as a form of expression is as vital and energetic as it has ever been, and QDoc brings the highest caliber of films – and their makers – to share with Portland audiences.
