IT'S ALL GONE PETE TONG is an award winning mockumentary -- a fictionalized and comedic "biopic" based on legendary DJ Frankie Wilde. It is a hilarious, wild and original look at an extraordinary life.
Having found success with the mockumentary genre with 2002’s indie cult darling FUBAR, a fictionalized portrait of two aging headbangers, acclaimed Canadian filmmaker Michael Dowse shifts his comedic focus with IT'S ALL GONE PETE TONG to the superstar DJ lifestyle and club culture, in general.
Frankie was one of Europe’s most talented and envied DJs. Everything about his life was over the top: the clubs, the parties, the women and the drugs. But the years of pounding music and heavy toxins took their toll, eventually leaving Frankie stone deaf. The good times gone, Frankie isolated himself in his villa for a year under a pile of self-pity and a mountain of drugs.
IT'S ALL GONE PETE TONG chronicles Frankie’s dynamic reconnection with the beats that had defined him, the comeback that left the club world stunned, and his mysterious disappearance.
Paul Kaye, portraying Frankie Wilde, turns in an award-winning performance. The film features interviews with world-famous DJs including Pete Tong, Carl Cox, Tiesto and Paul Van Dyk. The movie’s soundtrack is an amazing collection of club, new independent and classic songs.
The phrase, "It's All Gone Pete Tong," is Cockney rhyming slang that plays off the name of superstar DJ Pete Tong. It means, "It's all gone wrong."
