A Single Man is based on the novel of the
same name by Christopher Isherwood. Set in Los Angeles in 1962, at the height of
the Cuban missile crisis, it is the story of a British college professor 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.

Mario Prassinos liked Istanbul more than the current Istanbulites of today. It is obvious that you can understand this from the article written by her daughter Catherine Prassinos in the Pera Museum's book on the artist.
