SINOPSE
A lyrical portrait of a brilliant yet tormented artist "Slán leis an gCeol" (Farewell to Music) explores the complexities of a talented and philosophical man laying bare the deep-seated troubles that lie just beneath the surface. Tony MacMahon one of Ireland's most remarkable traditional musicians was recently diagnosed with Parkinson's' and is rapidly losing his ability to play. Losing his creative voice is slowly killing his spirit and has led him to prepare for his own death through assisted suicide. In his own inimitable lyrical fashion Tony recounts the pivotal events that shaped his life determined his mind and influenced his art. Delving deep into his mental anguish he reveals a difficult story of euphoric highs and devastating lows. It is the story of a long often secret battle with bipolar disorder. A battle in which he tried to use his own unique passions and creativity to turn his darkness into light.
