“Grounded and character-driven” (Variety), this coming-of-age comedy captures how the challenges of being young, black and misunderstood can be compounded in a new environment. Moving to Germany with his single dad, 13-year-old Morris is a total fish-out-of-water. Hoping to become the next Notorious B.I.G., he's a budding rap star in an EDM world. Against all odds and wanting to impress cool, older classmate Katrin, Morris sets out to take the hip-hop world by storm. D: Chad Hartigan, US, 2016, 91m
