Sundance 2015: Rick Famuyiwa’s DOPE Trailer

The first trailer has been released for  Rick Famuyiwa’s (The Wood, Brown Sugar) Dope, which is set to premiere at this year’s Sundance Film Festival in Park City, UT. The film stars Shameik Moore, Tony Revolori, Kiersey Clemons, Zoë Kravitz, Keith Stanfield, Kimberly Elise, A$AP Rocky and Tyga, and revolves around a group of ’90s hip-hop geeks living in Inglewood California.

Take a look below for the first trailer via Entertainment Weekly:

 

Malcolm is a high school geek with a high-top fade, carefully navigating life in The Bottoms, one of the toughest neighborhoods in Inglewood, California. He and his fellow outcasts share a voracious appreciation for all things ’90s hip-hop, opting to sport Cross-Colours and Z. Cavariccis at the risk of being clowned at school. He dreams of attending Harvard, but first he has to make it home every day. When a drug dealer takes a shine to Malcolm and invites him to his birthday party, Malcolm’s crew is swirled into a hilarious blender of offbeat characters and bad choices where redemption can only be found in Bitcoin.
