Synopsis
Jordan and Rahman Gaffney-Bruce, newly married men, move into the eccentric Washington neighborhood known as Slope to start building a life together. Built precariously on a hill, Slope is home to descendants of the Great Migration and is now a lower middle class Black community trapped in a cycle of spiritual depression.
In the midst of this community, the Gaffney-Bruces gather with the other residents every Sunday in quiet prayer and contemplation, in hopes that their collective dreams will be realized: To be seen. To be known. To thrive – on their own terms. Alongside them is Pops, the quiet old man who has seen it all; Miss Sandra, the matriarch and maven of Sunday dinners; Royce, one of the few good cops left; and the Gang of Four – soft-spoken Peek, angry Korey, flamboyant Ziggy, and Gino, the natural leader.
When one of the youths is felled by gun violence, generations-old secrets threaten to unravel the serenity of this peculiar community.
