CLUB HEAVEN immerses viewers into one night of excess at an EDM temple within a global megacity.

The Playhouse in Chengdu, China, is #19 on DJMag’s global Top 100 list of megaclubs. Stripped of music and shot partly with a thermal camera, the film transforms the club into a living organism — its pleasures and pressures laid bare under an X-ray glow. Between spectacle and exhaustion, CLUB HEAVEN reveals the anatomy of a global dream: the pursuit of transcendence, one night at a time.
