2017 Drama

To her only friend, her name is "Killa-P," but Patti Dombrowski (Macdonald) is called "Dumbo" by her haters. The native of a run-down New Jersey town is an overweight white girl with aspirations of being a hip-hop star, much to the chagrin of her alcoholic mother (Everett), who was once an up-and-coming musician herself. Despite not looking like a typical rap star, Patti impresses the locals in rap battles in gas station parking lots, and soon joins up with her friend Hareesh (Dhanajay), and a local punk rocker (Athie) to form a hip hop group.
