Beef – Coming of Rage

"A young woman's obsession with a pop star takes a dark turn."

"Unpacked stories of the black female experience from the perspective of two female protagonists, Issa and Molly, who have been best friends since their college days at Stanford. Both in their late 20s, they navigate career and relationship experiences while living in their hometown, Los Angeles, California. They share a close bond, and throughout the show they deal with internal struggles with themselves, their friendship, and the African-American community. Issa works at a non-profit that benefits middle-school-aged students of color, "We Got Y'all." She struggles to put the spark back into her relationship with her long-term boyfriend Lawrence, who has been slacking in their relationship since his start-up company failed. Molly is a successful corporate attorney who has career success but difficulty with dating men. The half-hour series explores social and racial issues that relate to the contemporary black experience."
