Insecure: The End


Issa Rae and her Insecure co-stars are finishing on a high with Season 5 of her hit show, along with a behind-the-scenes doccie revealing why this show is so culturally important.

Binge all 5 Seasons right now as Issa Rae not only writes, directs and executive produces, she stars as Issa Dee, a young Black woman living in California who’s going through life’s ups and downs.

The show has centred on Issa and her bestie Molly’s experiences with dating, social conscious matters, discrimination, bullying and more. And Season 5 takes everything you’ve learnt, seen and experienced in Seasons 1-4 and combines them for a wild ride… and it ends with even more introspection on life with the companion doccie.

The End goes behind the scenes and reveals the cast and crew’s final days, how they bonded, how they’ve been impacted and taken different meanings from shared experiences, and why this dramedy series is a cultural movement that speaks to people of all races, ages, genders and orientations by using two Black women to tell the story.

The documentary features cast members including Issa Rae, Jay Ellis, Yvonne Orji, Natasha Rothwell, Amanda Seales, Wade Allain-Marcus, Kendrick Sampson and Christina Elmore.
