What happens to our dead? Is someone looking out for them on the other side? A Violet Light takes up these questions, exposing fiction's power to imagine what might happen to us on the other side of life. A young artist named Adrian finds himself seated at a table with an esteemed guide: the Montreal legend, Leonard Cohen. Together, over the course of a long meal at an idyllic bistro, the artists reflect on the meaning of their lives―the struggle to love, the pursuit of fame, and the pleasure of friendship.
