Netflix Series BEEF Storyline

Two people let a road rage incident burrow into their minds and slowly consume their every thought and action.

Beef, a creative marriage between the streaming site and cult film production company A24, stars Steven Yeun and Ali Wong as two hopelessly lost adults who find purpose in their all-encompassing feud.

Danny (Yeun), a failing contractor, and Amy (Wong), a self-made entrepreneur, meet one day in a road rage incident where the pair are one gas-stomp away from basically killing each other.

What ensues instead is a lawless boxing match between the two that gradually becomes a black hole vacuuming in everyone in their lives, as they try to knock each other out by any means necessary — no matter the collateral (or emotional) damage.

But Danny and Amy’s fight eventually places a microscope on their own lives, as we begin to understand what Beef is really trying to say, who these two people really are, and what happened in their lives to get them to that point of animosity.
