    • Synopsis
    • Inspired by the work of Leonard Cohen, and set to some of his most beloved music. Death Of A Ladies' Man tells the story of the womanising poetry professor, Samuel O’Shea (Gabriel Bryne) who spirals when realises that he is suffering from hallucinations: Frankenstein sidles to the bar; strangers sing and dance to Leonard Cohen tunes; and his father Ben O’Shea (Brian Gleeson), who died when Samuel was just a boy, pops in for chats. Unsure on his next step, Samuel journeys remote Ireland to stay in his old family home. As he finds peace in the calm of Irish countryside and begins work on his final novel, he unexpectedly meets an exuberant woman who shows him it’s never too late to find love. From the producers of ‘Brooklyn’ and ‘Once’.
