Clairtone Synopsis

Acclaimed director Ron Mann delves into the captivating rise and fall of Clairtone, an audacious Canadian electronics company founded by Peter Munk and David Gilmour during the vibrant 1960s.

For a decade, Clairtone Sound Corporation captured the spirit of the times: sophisticated, cosmopolitan, liberated. From its modern oiled-walnut and teak stereos to its minimalist logos and promotional materials, Clairtone produced a powerful and enduring body of work that epitomized iconic mid-century design. Clairtone soared to international acclaim, becoming a symbol of Canadian ingenuity and modernity; however, after six years of spectacular growth, Clairtone’s collision with economic challenges led to their dramatic decline.
