Degrassi: Whatever it Takes

From the late 1980s to the 2010s, Degrassi was an undeniable Canadian cultural phenomenon. Fueled by the juggernaut that was Degrassi Junior High, and gaining a new audience with Degrassi: The Next Generation, this franchise became more than just another high school drama. 

Featuring interviews with some of your favourite cast members (including Drake, arguably Degrassi’s most famous graduate), and the crews and creators of the various series, this is a nostalgic look at a seminal series that’s also not afraid to ask the tough questions about the sacrifices that were made to bring it to life.

“An ode to one of Canada’s greatest entertainment exports. It will make you laugh, it might make you cry, but more than anything, it will hopefully make you proud.” - Kevin Bourne, SHIFTER
