A Poet from the Sea is a 1927 Chinese silent film written and directed by Hou Yao, starring himself as a quixotic poet who tried to escape from the constraints of modernity.

Filmed in Stanley, Hong Kong, it contains one of the earliest footages of Hong Kong.

A fragment of the film was recovered in Europe and is currently stored in Italy's Cineteca di Bologna.
