They say there's a light at the end of every tunnel; well, someone clearly forgot to pay the bill. In Outta Pocket, the light is looking for dim for Mello as he struggles with adversities and comes to realize his hew home is nothing like he imagined. With daily reminders of low bank balances, torturous roommates, housing hiccups and struggles to find a squad, his expectations of life in Los Angeles are let down - HARD. As if being Black isn't enough, Mello is pursuing a career in the entertainment industry and quickly recognizes how difficult 'making it' truly is. Mello remains optimistic and pushes through misfortune, often finding himself in hilariously unbelievable situations. Based on true events, these situations leave Mello and people around him thinking, 'this can't be real life'. The comedy gives a crisp and innovative take on what can happen when we force ourselves out of our comfort zones and remain open to what the world throws at us.
