New York brought them together. Their music made them famous. They were immortalised by their passion.
At the end of the 1960’s, Janis Joplin and Leonard Cohen, two of the most famous singers in the world, spent a night together at the legendary Chelsea Hotel in New York. What could seem to be one of many sexual encounters between artists in those days (with the usual drugs and rock ‘n’ roll) is a night that marks the lives of both singers forever. Shortly afterwards, Joplin died of an overdose in another hotel room and Cohen, as a catharsis, composed a song in her memory, reminiscing that night when two strangers started talking and made love as if they were old friends.
But... what would have happened if that morning Joplin had not fled from the room? Would they have stayed together? Would that have prevented her death? And what if they could see each other again? And what if life, or perhaps death, gave them a new opportunity to go back to that night…to return to the Chelsea Hotel.
