BEIGE
Based on the life of creator Rob Santos, BEIGE is a story of the intersection of race, mental health, and sense of self. As a Beige man trying to be a Black man in a white man’s world, and a mental health patient on top of it, Rob steps into a world that he doesn’t understand, and that doesn’t understand him.
He wants a “new” life with his new mentality, but his old behaviors must change, and he must prove to his family he’s changed.
BEIGE is a retelling of not just Rob's story. Content and concepts are stolen from BIPOC creators and bastardized in the entertainment industry with great regularity -- a prime example of the White Savior complex, racism, and white privilege. The team behind BEIGE intends to tell this story the way is was always meant to be.
Beige will be streaming on Fox Soul in early 2025!

Beige follows Rob Soto, a comedian recently released from a mental wellness facility, as he navigates the complicated journey of rebuilding his life. From reconnecting with his estranged family to rediscovering his place in the toxic comedy scene he walked away from, and ultimately finding peace within himself, Beige is a raw, honest, and sometimes darkly comedic exploration of healing, identity, and the messy process of being human.
All three episodes are combined into one immersive experience.
