Cocoa (2023)

Cocoa (2023). Cocoa: Directed by Joe Gawalis, Jody Mortara. With Jody Mortara, Megan McGarvey, Cedric Gegel, Siena D'Addario. Two at odds sisters hit rock bottom in this live action film, and find themselves thrown together to try and remake their lives. When the only solace is their mother's chocolate cake, they decide to create a chocolate cake that makes you lose weight. But, during the funding 'pitch' party, the investor's dog gets into the chocolate cake which sets off a 24-hour city-wide chase beginning with Dr. Dogwood, the eccentric vet with a 'potion', an encounter with a bumbling terrorist, and the attention of an up and coming field reporter who sees this as her shot at fame. The topper is when they realize they have gained the interest of the mob boss Carmine Frangiolini and his opportunistic family friend, Lucas Morello, who "want to make them an offer they cannot refuse". Somehow, through this ordeal, these two displaced sisters come together to create a national franchise and find that… they aren't so different after all.

“I truly enjoyed Jody Mortarau0026#39;s comedy Cocoa. A comedy with adventure, that hope and faith can allow us to push through just about anything, as seen throughout this fast pace unpredictable hilarious comedy. The two sisters, Faith (Mortara) and Hope (McGarvey) had a wonderful relationship that grew with every turn. The lovable dog Cocoa was another element of lighthearted and unpredictable fun. When Cocoa eats the secret chocolate cake creation it seemed like it was the end, until Dr Dogwood saves the day. Of course, a crazy Dr that appears to have only one foot in this reality and bring Cocoa back to life!u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI Hope to see more entertainment like this in the future. We need lighthearted comedy, fun adventure, and something to always remind us that we all need more Faith and Hope.”
