Since 2000, Michael T, Justine D, Johnny T and Georgie Seville have come together to put on one of the most exciting events in nightlife: Motherfucker. Influenced by 90's clubs such Jackie 60 and Squeezebox, Motherfucker reinvigorated the New York club scene after it spiraled into remission following its murderous and violent past. This documentary profiles the scene itself as well as the club’s promoters, a loving and sometimes feuding family headed by their mother, Michael T. Performance footage intercuts with interviews featuring David Johansen and Sylvain Sylvain of the New York Dolls, Moby, Alan Cumming, The Juan MacLean, vogue icon Willie Ninja and many others, weighing in on how Motherfucker figures into the lineage of NYC nightlife.
