Set in Montreal during the disco phenomenon some 35 years ago, Funkytown follows the life of a group of colorful characters. We follow their lives and tribulations as everyone converges on a regular basis at Montreal’s hot disco spot: Starlight. Along the way, several events take place that change these characters’ lives. As these characters’ lives unfold, the Parti Qu├®b├®cois takes power changing the cultural landscape in Quebec while the disco craze slowly fades. While we keep up with these various characters – it is Bastien who is a central part of this story. His drug addiction, dreams to become an actor and womanizing – make him the “bigger than life” typical 70s character around which the whole story revolves.
