Plot Synopsis

DTLA follows the relationships and sex lives of eight friends with varied ethnic, cultural, and sexual orientations who work and live in Downtown Los Angeles. Lenny, a civil litigation attorney, reunites with his college friend SJ during the breaking point in her marriage -- and while his own long-term relationship with Bryan starts to crumble. Also in the mix are: Kai, a young teacher obsessed with hooking up with his celeb crush; Marky, a young Marine cadet, and his boyfriend Matthew, a newcomer to LA who will stop at nothing to make it as an actor; and Stefan, an outspoken lawyer struggling to make his relationship work with his much younger boyfriend Trey after finding out about his secret life. This series, originally billed as "a cross between QUEER AS FOLK and SWINGERS," raised $33,525 in funding at kickstarter.com, and, according to producers, "was the first instance that a Kickstarter-assisted, crowd-funded television series received domestic and international distribution." The night this series premiered on Logo in the United States, it simultaneously made its international debut on Canada's Out TV.
