SYNOPSIS
Jukebox is a fascinating film about the beginnings of our recording industry. We discover, by clapping our hands and dancing on our seat, the most astonishing character in our history of popular music. A stranger whose songs Quebec knows by heart: Denis Pantis. With his singers and groups from here, this brilliant resourceful has filled the Quebec charts with songs. Thanks to him, for the first time, Quebec record sales exceeded those of Americans and Europeans combined: this is the OTHER great feat of 1967, the year of the exhibition. To live the Jukebox experience in the cinema is to live the exciting and hectic adventure of the birth of our recording industry. With the beat. You liked the Expo 67 thriller, you will love the Jukebox comedy.
