Starring, Glen Hansard, Marketa Irglova.
The world fell in love with Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova when their songwriting collaboration in the film Once culminated in a jubilant Oscar win. But behind the scenes, where Glen and Mar's on-screen romance became reality, a grueling two-year world tour with their band Swell Season threatens to fracture their fated bond. Gorgeously filmed in black and white, this music-filled documentary is an intimate look at the exhilaration and turmoil created by both love and fame.

Bittersweet story submitted by crazypockets on July 3, 2012, 9:59am This is a great documentary for anyone who enjoyed "Once." I am a fan of the band and both individual artists, but I think anyone who is interested in music history or behind-the-scenes documentaries will enjoy this. The cinematography is engaging and beautiful, filmed all in black and white with some great angles and shots. It jumps around a little story-wise, and I found I actually liked it that way and didn't have a hard time following. It was a little sad as any story of ups and downs with relationships can be, but you can tell that the band members really do care about each other. And of course, the music was terrific!
