REVIEW
Not your usual white-bread gay romance, On the Downlow tells a tragically romantic, almost Shakespearean tale of love between two Southside Chicago Latino gang members. For those who don’t have time to watch Oprah, “on the DL” or “Downlow” refers to “straight” street-wise men who have sex with men on the sly.

Angel (Cortez) is a member of the Latin Kings -- he’s also got a secret lover -- Isaac (Sancho,) who’s a member of a rival gang. Their affection takes place under cover of night and in secret places – their relationship is held close to their hearts. When Angel double-crosses the Kings, Isaac uses the opportunity to get his lover into his own gang. First-time director Tadeo Garcia has taken us into a previously unknown world. He says, “One of the themes I like to play around with is that not everything is what it seems…I like to throw people off as much as I can.” Shot entirely on Chicago’s gang-torn streets, the performances, from first-time actors, are first-rate which adds to the sense of authentic street cred. Filled with surprise twists, plenty of suspense and a heightened sense of romance, On the Downlow may just open your eyes.
