Fiona soon snaps, and walks out on him, [[MyGirlIsASlut in the most devastating possible way]]. ExecutiveMeddling destroys ''[[Film/ApocalypseNow Full Metal Jackoff]]''; and he has a breakdown, turning his back on everyone involved with the film, including now-former friend Frank.

Years later, Arturo has traveled to a film festival in Portland, Oregon to receive a Lifetime Achievement award; and screen the ReCut of ''Full Metal Jackoff'', restored to his original vision. However, there is trouble looming that threatens to push him over the edge. His latest and most ambitious epic, ''[[GangsOfNewYork Gang Bangs of New York]]'' is having financial difficulties which threaten to kill it before filming starts. Worse yet, Portland is the home of his now-ex wife Fiona; whom he has never gotten over, and for whom his obsession still burns. And if that's not bad enough, also in town is Frank E. Normo, now a huge star with his own hit Cable TV/Internet porn show. Along the way he encounters enthusiastic fans, rabid {{Hatedom}}, and [[NewAgeRetroHippie pot-smoking hippies]]. The film is Arturo's struggle to recover his spark, his wife, and his former glory; while shooting some [[GirlOnGirlIsHot beautiful girl-on-girl action]].
