Funkytown

Synopsis

Sometimes we need illusions in order to survive. But what happens when the illusions disappear? In the 1970s, Montreal was the richest city in Canada, one of the great cities of North America. It was also at the heart of the disco movement, a phenomenon that changed the world with its libertine style. Funkytown is a drama that takes place over three years during that decade and tells the stories of several lives that intersected, twisted and fell in a universe where peoples’ success was quickly eclipsed by their self-destruction.
