Once is the story of two struggling musicians, starring Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova, who develop a love for each other which they communicate through their music.

Hansard and Irglova developed a personal romantic relationship following the film. However, in January 2009, media sources reported that the couple are no longer dating.Huffington Post: "Once" Couple Splits In Real Life (January 27, 2009)

Shot for only $160,000, the film was a critical and box office success in the United States winning the 2008 Independent Spirit Awards for Best Foreign Film and the 2008 Academy Award for the film's song "Falling Slowly."

Neither of the films leads, Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova, are trained actors, but both are professional musicians.
