Funkytown
1976. Montreal. Eight people who want to see and be seen at the trendiest disco in town, will be juggling freedom and tradition, lovers and family, drugs and sobriety, fame and anonymity, until they are forced to make sober choices in an era when excess was the norm, and when disco was king.

A Canadian version of 54 - sweeneysblade
The movie is okay, very atmospheric, but it's a multi-character story of people in the 70s. It's familiar, cliched, easy. Nothing's really wrong about it, but nothing quite works for it either, aside from the costumes, camerawork and that funky soundtrack.
If you want a homegrown version of the 70s, get this. If you want a slicker version, go with 54.Ça ben d'l'allure! - Tigidou
Au-dessus de la moyenne des films québécois. Voilà un projet qui n'était pas facile car l'histoire se déroule sur plusieurs années avec pas mal de personnages qui ont tous des histoires rocambolesques. L'hypocrisie est l'un des thèmes centrals et ceux qui en abusent mènent cette histoire tout droit vers une triste fin.
