Documentary chronicles life of Canadian baladeer beloved of student and folkie alike. The bard of Montreal has written melancholic, poetic songs that have struck a chord with several generations now and his influence on modern song writing carries arguably as much weight as a Dylan or a Van Morrison. In 2005, director Lian Lunson travelled to The Sydney Opera House to capture a concert called 'Came So Far For Beauty' - a tribute to Cohen performed by contemporary artists including Nick Cave, Jarvis Cocker, Rufus Wainright and Beth Orton. The film also features a unique performance of the Cohen Classic 'I'm Your Man' with the man himself on vocal and U2 backing him. These performances are scattered with clips of Cohen in a candid and humorous interview. A comprehensive portrait of a singular and seminally influential artist.
