    • Synopsis
    • Brian Tyree Henry (Atlanta, If Beale Street Could Talk) takes on his first big screen lead character as Charles Young, an introverted video editor, trying to recover from a broken heart. Perceiving a betrayal of trust as a sign his girlfriend Isha (Sonequa Martin-Green, Star Trek: Discovery) is leaving him, Charles pre-emptively blows up his relationship and sequesters himself at home. The fates do not comply and Charles accidentally locks himself out of his apartment. Stumbling into a life-changing odyssey exploring his building and his community, Charles meets a dynamic ensemble of previously avoided neighbors (played by Asia Kate Dillon, Sunita Mani, Olivia Edward and Maria Dizzia among others). With no shoes, no money and a phone low on battery, Charles discovers in The Outside Story we’ve all got issues and it never helps to keep them all locked up inside.
