Clubland is a candid nocturnal romp through Toronto’s groundbreaking Entertainment District. But Clubland is more than a place its an experience, a scene an attitude -and the center of the universe for a generation. This documentary will take you on a VIP tour beyond the long line-ups and velvet ropes. We hang with clubbers as they take-in the party scene at some of the hottest nightspots in the world. We spend the night with many of the District’s key movers and shakers….the savvy clubowners and expert promoters who have been so instrumental in Clubland’s rise to a level of success few could have imagined - and of course the cops who try to control this testosterone and alcohol highball. Indeed, Toronto’s Clubland has grown to become the most congested entertainment district in North America. Yet some are not so enamored with the idea of cramming 50,000 fun-seekers into an area barely 1.5 sq. kilometers in size. Politicians, police and local condo dwellers prepare themselves each weekend for the inevitable onslaught of partiers. Clubowners have invested millions into the area, developers hundreds of millions and thousands of new condo owners have their life savings tied up in the area. See how this area went from sweat shops to sweat boxes to shoe boxes in a generation. The area repeatedly makes the headlines with the same conclusion…..What’s to be done? For the club kids, that is the wrong question for them its “What’s next?” This is Clubland. |
