The dramatic true story of Steve Driver and Tom Dong, wannabe "Chris Tucker and Jackie Chan of Porn", and their ever more pathetic efforts to rise beyond the status of "mope" - in porn words, the less than nothing extras barely worthy of an ejaculation.

Never, since Larry Clark's part in the Destricted anthology, has the film industry so vehemently criticised the fascination for pornography among young adults. Lucas Heyne confronts the subject from the first scene onwards. Better: he avoids complacency and emotionally invests in the story of his two main characters, the incredibly accurate Nathan Stewart-Jarrett and Kelly Sry. The pop comedy varnish cracks up little by little, the crack becomes gaping, the abyss finally overwhelming: for a first long, Mope is impressive.
