''On the Downlow'' is the 2004 debut film of director Tadeo Garcia, a low-budget film starring Michael Cortez and Tony Sancho. Proving very popular with the film critics and the public, it was released on DVD in January 9, 2007. ==Synopsis== ''On the Downlow'' is a love story set in Little Village, Chicago, between Angel (Michael Cortez) and Isaac (Tony Sancho), two warmly human, supportive, sensitive young men. Their affection to each other is shown in a long kiss in a dark alley in Chicago, and later on, in a musical sequence in the film. Isaac also questions his sexuality in a long confession with a priest in the church. Angel, in order to be with his secret lover Isaac gives up his allegiance to his former Latin Kings gang and pledges to Isaac's Southside Chicago's Two Six gang led by Reaper (Donato Cruz) after a cruel initiation beating. Although the film uses names of actual gangs in the area, the introduction to the film says there is no direct relation to the actual gang names used. When Reaper is later informed that Angel is an ex-gang member of the rival Latin Kings gang, he decides that Isaac should kill him. Issac desperately tries to arrange for him and Angel to escape Chicago but the inevitable happens and the gang captures Angel. When Isaac refuses to execute Angel, Reaper does the job. Isaac then kills Reaper and then commits suicide. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「On the Downlow」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
