Malcolm is a geek, carefully navigating his rough LA neighborhood while juggling college applications and the SATs. A chance invitation to an underground party leads him into a gritty adventure filled with offbeat characters and bad choices. With snappy dialogue and breakneck plotting, this Sundance crowd-pleaser “provokes a discussion about the dichotomy between societal expectations of the race-defined self, as well as the democratic American right to be who you want to be” (indieWire). D: Rick Famuyiwa, US, 2015, 115m
