Albuquerque, 1951. A struggling community of social guidance filmmakers, searching for ways to keep their studio afloat, spend their last dollars on a mysterious con man they mistake for a Method actor. The con man wants a quick buck, and the filmmakers want a realistic edge to their films. Both get much more than they bargained for in this warm, engaging comedy in the spirit of Pleasantville, Ed Wood and Shadow of the Vampire.

Reviled by many as obscene, the "ultimate four-letter word" has become an undeniable part of our culture. F*CK features dozens of interviews with actors, linguists, comedians, news commentators, politicians, scholars and people on the street, from Kevin Smith and Sam Donaldson, to Hunter S. Thompson and Ice T. Throw in an interview with a wholesome 50’s music icon, and you might just be cleaning up your act by saying "Boone!"
