Dope

“It's hard out here for a geek.”

Malcolm (Shameik Moore) wants into Harvard, and he is working toward it from a rough Los Angeles neighborhood, between SAT prep and alumni interviews. Rick Famuyiwa follows him and his friends Jib (Tony Revolori) and Diggy (Kiersey Clemons) to an underground party that Dom (A$AP Rocky) invites him to. Everything Malcolm has carefully built, the applications, the interviews, the future, is now at risk.
