本片是繼獲奧斯卡最佳外語片提名的《傷失的情歌》之後，導演菲力斯梵古寧執導的第五部長片，靈感源於他父親在根特開設的一間酒吧。電影被主流外媒讚譽為「從寫實視角看傷失的享樂主義情懷」。百無聊賴的中年白人大叔Frank，厭倦不景氣的汽車生意和繁瑣無趣的家務，決定放手一搏，將弟弟Jo的酒吧改造為夜總會。與粗線條又耽於飲酒Frank不同，敏感細膩的Jo更有生意頭腦，還將自己最狂熱的音樂帶到夜總會中，兩人的狂歡大計就此開始，通宵達旦的放縱和享樂贏得巨大成功，但在酒精與毒品的麻醉下，一切歡愉似乎過了頭……

The director, van Groeningen, whose film The Broken Circle Breakdown (2012), was nominated for the Best Foreign Language Film of the Year at the Oscars, made his 5th feature film inspired by a real-life Charlatan Bar in Ghent owned by his father. The story was praised by the critics as “a realistic tale of hedonism gone wrong”. Frank, a middle-aged white man who is bored with his daily life, including his sluggish car business and dull housework, decides to turn his younger brother Jo’s bar into a nightclub. Different from Frank, who barely knows anything about running a club, Jo is more responsible and has a strong passion for music. Their experimental club soon becomes a big success. However, things get out of hands. Drugs, alcohol and the big differences between the brothers start to spoil the fun……
