Watch The Swell Season

This is a 2011 musical documentary where reality meshes with fantasy. Glen and Marketa filmed a movie and went on a world tour in 2008. This movie is a psychological study as to what happens when too much success comes too fast. They fall in love but a grueling work schedule threatens their love bondage. This film was done entirely in black and white and the lack of color portrays a realism shown in a love story intertwined with music. The couple endure tragedies throughout and also personal success. But ultimately, music proves to be the uniting thing that enables the couple to move forward.
