Plot:
Film director Sing, whose last two works haven’t had box office success, is facing professional and financial difficulties. Things seem to change for the better when an investor takes an interest in Sing’s new screenplay, but it turns out that all the investor wants is a vulgar erotic comedy with his mistress as the leading actress. As a man of high artistic principles, Sing isn’t very happy about the idea, but if he wants to revive his career, he must team up with once-a-gangster investor, the producer who puts commercial success over art, and the leading lady who doesn’t want to do nude scenes or show any acting skills. So… Lights, Camera, Action!
