Young People Fucking follows five stories, a single sexual encounter between each couple, leading from 'Foreplay' through to 'Afterglow.'
Each couple’s attempt to have sex is met with an endless stream of complications.
The Couple, Abby (KRISTIN BOOTH) and Andrew (JOSH DEAN), try to spice up their stale love life, only to discover that things are worse than they thought.
Matt (AARON ABRAMS) and Kristen (CARLY POPE) are The Friends, lifelong buddies, one sick and the other sick of love. Their plan to sleep together goes off the rails when romance rears its ugly head. The Exes, Mia (SONJA BENNETT) and Eric (JOSH COOKE), hook up again for old time’s sake, while trying to hide the feelings they still have for one another. In The First Date, world-class playboy Ken (CALLUM BLUE) comes clean about his history to his naïve young date Jamie (DIORA BAIRD), learning some of her secrets in the process. The Roommates, Dave (PETER OLDRING) and Gord (ENNIS ESMER) are normally at each other’s throats, but set aside their differences for a threesome with Gord’s girlfriend Inez (NATALIE LISINSKA). In each case, the couple (and trio) discovers that sex isn’t always simple.

"The casting process was long and exhausting," says Gero, "It took about a year and we saw close to 400 people in Montreal, Vancouver, Toronto and Los Angeles."
They found Callum Blue in Los Angeles, the first actor they saw in two days of auditions.
"We knew we had to have him immediately when we saw him," says Gero.
Blue was attracted to the script’s quick-witted, dry humour, though he couldn’t relate completely to the character, a player. He had a good time playing a character "who hasn’t fully evolved yet. I think too much, but Ken is all about eating and fucking, so it let me free myself from my own madness."
