WHAT IS ‘THEY CLONED TYRONE’ ABOUT?

Here’s the official logline from Netflix:

A series of eerie events thrusts an unlikely trio (Boyega, Foxx and Parris) onto the trail of a nefarious government conspiracy in this pulpy mystery caper.

Entertainment Weekly, which released the trailer exclusively, included this longer synopsis:

After Fontaine seemingly dies one night in a shootout, he awakens the next day with no memory of his death or the day before, and continues on as if nothing happened. However, Slick Charles saw Fontaine gunned down and is more than a little freaked out when the dealer shows up at his door yet again, demanding the money he previously gave him. With help from the inquisitive Yo-Yo, they soon find out why Fontaine doesn’t remember getting shot: he’s a clone. One of many discovered in an underground lab that’s also pumping out products ranging from fried chicken to grape soda that keeps their community pleasantly placated. Together, they have to find out who cloned… well, Fontaine.
