I can’t thank you enough for the help- I’ve been working on the scripts for this series for the past year, but the logline is what I’m seriously having difficulties with…

The reason I claim this is a dramatic comedy is because the plot is quite dark but what happens throughout the series counter balances the plot (there is a character in particular that is quite crass and always makes inappropriate comments that somewhat lightens the mood so-to-speak…

This character ‘A’ did not willingly have sex with a man- to be honest, she didn’t even know she was pregnant until she visited the family doctor after feeling very ill for a few days.
At the end of the first season, she finally finds out that she was assaulted during a “ritual” that the highest member in her family called for. A ritual that involved her drinking something similar to peyote (she hallucinated and then passed out). She still does not know who the father is at this point.

She found refuge with her cousin that lives in the city (yes, New York). She is not pregnant when she arrives in the city- I used the term exiled loosely because she wasn’t really forced to leave the reservation, she was constantly ridiculed and was bringing embarrassment to the family after being outed by who she thought was a close friend and for being a pregnant lesbian.
She was, however, forced to leave her daughter with her family because they did not want her corrupting the newborn.

“Character A, a lesbian Native American Indian finds refuge in the city that never sleeps after being exiled from her reservation for having a child out of wedlock. …”

I’m not too sure what to say to finish the logline..
“…Character A must decide…?”
Now I’m at a mental block….

I hope this made sense and cleared up some questions! Again, thank you for taking the time to give feedback- I seriously appreciate it 🙂
