Dope is a 2015 American coming-of-age comedy-drama film written and directed by Rick Famuyiwa and produced by Forest Whitaker and Nina Yang Bongiovi.

It stars Shameik Moore, Tony Revolori, Kiersey Clemons, Kimberly Elise, Chanel Iman, Tyga, Blake Anderson, Zoë Kravitz, ASAP Rocky and Vince Staples.

Malcolm Adekanbi and his best friends, Jib Caldones and Diggy Andrews, are high school "geeks" living in "The Bottoms", a high-crime neighborhood in Inglewood, California.

While biking home, Malcolm is stopped by Dom, a drug dealer who instructs him to invite a girl named Nakia to his party.

Jib and Diggy accompany Malcolm to the party, where Dom's purchase of high-grade, powdered molly is interrupted by an armed gang, and several people are shot.

Malcolm, Jib and Diggy flee to the address, chased by the unknown caller, and are greeted by Jaleel and his sister Lily.

Malcolm, Jib and Diggy seek help from hacker Will Sherwood, who sets up an online black-market website to sell the drugs through Bitcoin transactions, which soon goes viral.

The three friends enroll in a Google Science Fair project to access the school lab and computer room, where they can sell the drugs to the various buyers.

The next day, Malcolm asks Will to extract cash from the Bitcoins, and arranges a meeting with a money-laundering gangster named Fidel.

The website's critical consensus reads, "Featuring a starmaking performance from Shameik Moore and a refreshingly original point of view from writer-director Rick Famuyiwa, Dope is smart, insightful entertainment.
