Synopsis/Details
Meet Derrick and Rani, the charming and hilarious duo behind Atlanta Moving Company. They're two best friends who share a passion for hauling furniture by day and stealing valuables from crotchety old ladies by night. They're smooth, savvy, and always on the lookout for their next big score – and their next big screw-up. Derrick is a charismatic African-American man with a silver tongue and a heart of gold. He's been running scams and pulling heists since he was a kid, and he's never been caught. He's the brains behind the operation, always thinking one step ahead and staying cool under pressure. Rani is a bright and ambitious Indian-American woman who's a force to be reckoned with. She's the muscle of the team, with a black belt in karate and a sharp mind for strategy. She's also got a soft spot for Derrick, who's been her partner in crime since they were in high school. Together, Derrick and Rani make the perfect team. They've got the perfect cover for their heists: they show up in their moving truck, dressed in uniform, and pretend to be there to help. They've got the perfect fence: a sketchy fixer named Joe, who's always on the lookout for rare and valuable items to sell on the black market. But when they swipe a rare and coveted artifact from the clutches of a bigoted widow, they soon find themselves in way over their heads. The artifact is worth millions, and there are people willing to kill for it. As they try to figure out how to sell it without getting caught, they're pursued by a dangerous gang of criminals and a determined detective who's hot on their trail. What follows is a hilarious and hair-raising escapade that takes Derrick and Rani on a wild ride through the city they thought they knew. Along the way, they'll face off against corrupt cops, crooked politicians, and ruthless criminals. They'll also have to confront their own fears and doubts, as they navigate the murky waters of love and loyalty. Think "Mississippi Masala" meets "National Treasure" in the heart of Atlanta! With a diverse cast of characters, non-stop action, and laugh-out-loud humor, this is a heist movie like no other. Get ready for a wild ride that will keep you on the edge of your seat from beginning to end!
