Hallelujah: Leonard Cohen, A Journey, A Song

Presented by California Film Institute at Christopher B. Smith Rafael Film Center

Saturday, October 1:
*  Q&A with Directors Dan Geller, Dayna Goldfine

“In a class by itself – a majestic, almost symphonic documentary.”
– Joe Morgenstern, Wall Street Journal

Hallelujah: Leonard Cohen, A Journey, A Song is a definitive exploration of singer-songwriter Leonard Cohen as seen through the prism of his internationally renowned hymn, “Hallelujah.”

This feature-length documentary weaves together three creative strands: The songwriter and his times; the song’s dramatic journey from record label reject to chart-topping hit; and moving testimonies from major recording artists for whom “Hallelujah” has become a personal touchstone.

Approved for production by Leonard Cohen just before his 80th birthday in 2014, the film accesses a wealth of never-before-seen archival materials from the Cohen Trust including Cohen’s personal notebooks, journals and photographs, performance footage, and extremely rare audio recordings and interviews.

Directors: Dan Geller, Dayna Goldfine
