This colorful musical drama hustles viewers back to 1976 to recall the fashion, funk, and pharmaceuticals of the disco era. Set in Montreal and based on true events, it stars Justin Chatwin (Shameless) and international supermodel Sarah Mutch and garnered a Genie Award (Canada’s Oscar) for Best Achievement in Costume Design, so expect lots of sequins. 2011.
