In a Baltimore neighborhood known for having the thickest Baltimorese, Pecker is an unassuming 18-year-old who works in a sandwich shop and takes photos of his loving, but peculiar family and friends on the side. Pecker, so named for his childhood habit of "pecking" at his food, stumbles into fame when his work is "discovered" by a savvy New York art dealer, Rorey Wheeler. Pecker's pictures, taken with a cheap Canonet, are grainy, out-of-focus studies of unglamorous subjects, but they strike a chord with New York art collectors.
