After getting locked up for reckless behavior on his job, Dee, a young hustler with too much ego and not enough self-control, finds himself under house arrest in the middle of a scorching Southern summer. Confined to his mother’s rundown porch with nothing but an ankle monitor, his phone, and the chaos of the neighborhood swirling around him, Dee quickly learns that being stuck in one place doesn’t mean life slows down.

With his mama out of town and with the bill money gone because he spent it to get out of jail, Dee’s “stay-at-home sentence” spirals into an unpredictable street comedy. From dodging responsibility to ducking baby mama drama, he’s surrounded by a crew of neighborhood characters who keep the tension, temptation, and trouble flowing.

Ray Ray, his fast-talking best friend, pushes every wrong button and adds fire to Dee’s worst impulses. Meanwhile, Habib, the local food truck hustler, and his Nigerian rival, Tutu, go to war over territory and taste buds right in front of Dee’s porch. Every moment brings a new distraction: deliveries of hot wings, side hustles gone wrong, wild TikTok antics, petty street politics, and a revolving door of shady visitors.

But under the comedy is a man staring down his own reflection, broke, boxed in, and unsure how to change his life when the whole block expects the same old Dee.

Da Front Porch is a grounded, gritty, and hilarious look at survival when your freedom ends at the front steps. It captures the raw humor, real talk, and daily drama of neighborhood life, where the smallest front yard becomes the stage for lessons in loyalty, self-sabotage, and redemption.
