The Peace of Wild Things by Wendell Berry, a film by Charlotte Ager and Katy Wang

Wendell Berry reads his much-loved poem about going out among wild things when despair for the world grows, and the illustrator Charlotte Ager and the animator Katy Wang give it imagery that stays out of the way of his voice. It comes from the On Being Project's series of poetry films and lasts about a minute, which makes it the best quick remedy on this list for a bad news day. The On Being Project hosts it on its own channel, together with its Rilke film.
