By 1978 Leonard Cohen had already produced a staggering body of work
that had firmly set the standard for the singer-songwriter genre and
contained numerous classic songs within its cannon, but the 6 studio
albums released between then and 2006 contained some of the finest work
of Cohen's entire career. This film examines that period. It mixes rare
performance footage, studio recordings, interviews, rarely seen
photographs, location shoots and many other features with contributions
from some of Cohen's closest colleagues and from experts on his life and
music. Featuring his official biographer Ira Nadel; Cohen producers
John Lissauer, David Gold and John Simon, journalists Robert Christgau
[Village Voice], Anthony De Curtis [Rolling Stone] and Nigel Williamson
[Uncut], authors Johnny Rogan and Jim Devlin and many others.
