It's All Gone Pete Tong

It's All Gone Pete Tong is a 2004 comedy-drama about Frankie Wilde, a British DJ living and working on Ibiza who has built a reputation as one of the island's leading club performers. His hard-partying lifestyle is upended when he begins to lose his hearing, threatening both his career and his marriage. As his professional world slips away, he retreats and struggles with drugs and isolation before forming a connection with Penelope, a woman who is also deaf. The film follows his attempt to find a way forward in music despite his condition. The title comes from rhyming slang in which "Pete Tong" stands for "wrong", and the real DJ Pete Tong appears as himself.

The film was directed by Michael Dowse, who also wrote the screenplay, and was his first feature, made with producers James Richardson and Allan Niblo. Paul Kaye leads the cast as Frankie Wilde, with Kate Magowan as Sonja, Neil Maskell as Jack Stoddart and Beatriz Batarda as Penelope among 42 credited performers. It was shot in the United Kingdom and Canada on a budget of about 2 million dollars, and its worldwide box office matched that figure.

On IMDb the film holds a rating of 7.2 from around 21,000 votes, while on TMDB it has 6.5 from 217 votes. A critics' rating of 6.6 from 69 reviews places it close to the audience scores. Dowse went on to direct Fubar II, Take Me Home Tonight and Goon, among other films.
