Alystyre Julian's OUTRIDER听is a cinekinetic portal into fast-speaking poet Anne Waldman鈥檚听听transcendent role as a visionary word-worker and cultural activist from the downtown New York City bohemian scene 听with roots in free jazz . And flashes through the Poetry Project at St. Mark鈥檚 Church which Waldman helped found, and the Buddhist inspired Jack Kerouac School of Disembodied Poetics, created with Allen Ginsberg, 听to 听the fellaheen worlds 听of 听Big Sur, Mexico City, and Morocco. Guided by ancestors of the Beat generation and poetic kinships with radical female musicians, Outrider channels 听an ancient, bardic tradition鈥攃elebrating the thunderous power of poetry as a way of life.听 With Patti Smith, Meredith Monk, Laurie Anderson and others. Executive producer: Martin Scorsese.听 Sarah Riggs: Producer.

Anne Waldman鈥攊nternationally acclaimed poet, performer, activist, and magpie scholar鈥攈as been a force in experimental 鈥淥utrider鈥 poetics for over four decades, recognized in the lineages of the Beat, New York School, and Black Mountain traditions while raising the bar as a feminist and cultural activist. Author of more than 60 books, including the classic Fast Speaking Woman, the monumental Iovis Trilogy, and most recently Mesopotopia, her work spans epic poems, essays, performance, opera, and multidisciplinary collaborations. Anne was a co-founder of The Poetry Project at St. Mark鈥檚 Church in New York and, with Allen Ginsberg and Diane di Prima, the Jack Kerouac School of Disembodied Poetics at Naropa University in Colorado. She tours Europe in November 2025 with Outrider, a film on and with her, directed by Alystyre Julian, produced by Sarah Riggs, and executive produced by Martin Scorsese.
