Show Overview
The Hella-Verse is a bold, hilarious, and heartfelt cinematic universe rooted in Bay Area culture, identity, and real-life absurdity. Created by Our Time Filmz, this anthology-style series flips the script on everyday life—exploring love, food, self-discovery, and chaos through a uniquely Black, Bay, and unapologetically human lens.
Each story in the Hella-Verse stands on its own, yet they all share a common thread: everyday people thrust into wild situations that force them to grow, laugh, and look at life differently.
From a reluctant vegan facing off with kale in Hella Vegan, to the heat of unexpected romance in Hella Delicious, to love gone sci-fi in Hella Single, the Hella-Verse blends comedy, surrealism, and culture with soul. It’s a universe where the unexpected is expected—and the Bay is always at the center.
Whether you’re single, hungry, growing, or just trying to figure it out—the Hella-Verse has a story for you.
