Soft Ghetto is a 5-part mini-series focusing on the toxicity of hyper-masculinity, particularly in ‘hood culture.
19-year-old Ashley’s problem begins when, instead of leggings and a water bottle, he opens his bag and finds about $10,000 worth of cocaine. He secretly decides to sell it in order to provide for his infant daughter, but gets caught almost immediately. Luckily, Ashley is able to get himself off the hook by writing up a business model for the dealer he stole from. The situation is diffused and everyone is happy until dealer Big Mike makes Ashley an offer he literally can’t refuse.
