Set in Los Angeles in 1962, at the height of the Cuban missile crisis, A SINGLE MAN is the story of a British college professor (Academy Award® nominee* Colin Firth) who is struggling to find meaning to his life after the death of his long time partner. The story is a romantic tale of love interrupted, the isolation that is an inherent part of the human condition, and, ultimately, the importance of the seemingly smaller moments in life. © 2009 ASM Productions, Inc.
