- Synopsis:
- Morris Gentry (Markees Christmas) is thirteen and fancies himself as the next Notorious B.I.G. Having recently moved to Germany where nobody looks or acts like him, Morris relies on his father Curtis (Craig Robinson) to share his love of music. That is until Morris meets fifteen-year-old Katrin (Lina Keller), rebellious and cool, and falls instantly in love.
