Francesco,

Pecker is a movie by John Waters. It's about a kid who's an amateur
photographer in Baltimore and is "discovered" by the New York art world.
He's made an instant celebrity. John Waters resists no opportunity to
poke fun at sacred cows, to illustrate his films with Baltimore's fringe
cultures and to generally make a good piece of satire. It's funny. Has
its moments of tastelessness but not grossly offensive and the kid,
Pecker, actually has some nice street-style photos.
