QUICKIE EXPRESS

Jojo (Tora Sudiro), a twenty-five-year-old man who lives in Jakarta and always changes his job. He knows that he’s complete screw-up. But he never gives up trying out a new job after being fired from the last one. His good fortune started when he got an offer to work at a male escort service company. To avoid being attacked by religious group in Indonesia, the owner of company runs a pizza delivery service called “Quickie Express” as a cover up. Jojo begins his adventure in satisfying the sexual needs of lonely wives of rich and high-ranking officials. Jojo gets a better life, he’s financially secured; but his bright career as gigolo leads him to very complicated turns that he can ever imagined.
Jojo enters Quickie Express with two other new “recruits”, Marley (Amink) and Piktor (Lukman Sardi). With their looks and uniqueness, shortly the three of them become the top, most wanted escorts in the company. Their life gets better, they enjoy the easy and classy job that gives them a lot of money.
But their happiness is disturbed when Jojo meets a medicine student an fall in love with her, who also has relation with one of Jojo’s client and the mobster Jan Pieter Gunarto.
Quickie Express is a dark comedy that is full of satire, like biting a pizza that looks good but actually tasted like a tire.
