With unprecedented access to the MUCHMusic archives, 299 Queen Street West tells the story of a scrappy television upstart from the perspective of the VJs. At the time, they had no prior TV hosting experience, were given no scripts, no direction and went live to air across the country. Following the screening there will be an Intimate and Interactive with MUCHMusic VJs from the film.
