When a life-altering event causes Collin to miss his mandatory curfew, the two men struggle to maintain their friendship as the changing social landscape exposes their differences. Explores the intersection of race and class set against the backdrop of Oakland.

Blindspotting is another dramedy that unfortunately did not work for me. Plus neither of the perfomances or the humor and drama were quite effective. (0/10)
