Surviving Compton: Dre, Suge and Michel'le
5.7

Discovered at a young age, the shy, squeaky-voiced Michel'le was plucked straight from South Central, Los Angeles and catapulted into the spotlight while riding N.W.A.'s rocket ride of early success. Surrounded by industry visionaries from Eazy-E to Tupac Skaur, Michel'le quickly climbed the charts, but her musical successes were soon overshadowed by betrayal and corruption. A nearly decade-long romance with the infamous Dr. Dre pushed her into a life tarnished by alcohol, drugs and violence until her savior came in the unlikely form of Suge Knight, co-founder of Death Row Records and Dre's business partner. Friendship would turn into a courtly romance, but the union Michel'le thought they had did not end happily ever after. With children from both men and a career to protect, Michel'le's voice became silenced by Compton's biggest power players. Until now.

Rae is an artist going through an identity crisis. They’re unsure of their gender, struggling to find success, and starting to feel a little invisible. Today is Rae’s birthday, and when their father Jeff comes to visit, along with his troubled wife Mandy, things start to deteriorate. Tragedy strikes the house within minutes, but Jeff insists that they stick to the birthday plan: a family meal at his favourite Mexican restaurant. As the day goes on, Rae fights to hold the family together, comfort their grieving partner Alice, keep an eye on the increasingly-drunken Mandy, and deal with the non-stop stress of Jeff’s personality, all while being ignored and misunderstood by everyone around them; until the tension bursts and they finally confront their father, with awkward results.
