The club scene is the star of this sprawling ode to dance music. Portraying one man's journey from idealistic underage raver to star DJ to has-been, it captures the ecstatic joy and the reverberating emptiness of a life spent on the dance floor.

Director Mia Hansen-Løve co-wrote her third feature with her brother, Sven, based loosely on his experiences as a French house DJ.
