Porn in the Hood (French: Les Kaïra, pronounced [le kajʁa]) is a 2012 French sex comedy film directed by Franck Gastambide, based on the web series Kaira Shopping.[3][4] It was a commercial success, becoming the most profitable French film in 2012.[5]

Plot

The film follows the misadventures of three young men, Mousten, Abdelkrim and Momo, who have been friends since childhood and never left their hometown, Melun. Unemployed, without ambition or a purpose in life, they spend part of their time watching porn films and eventually become convinced that entering the porn industry could make them rich and famous. They meet a sleazy producer, who asks them to provide a video demonstration. Embarking on a quest to find a girl for their video, the three friends must face a series of humiliating mishaps.
