"Don't Go" is the intimate story of the lives and loves of a group of vibrant individuals living in an apartment complex in Los Angeles. These people struggle with the same issues we face every day: love, loss, change, and family. But rather than a static representation of our daily problems, this television series introduces us to new characters that may be our neighbors in real life but are rarely seen on our television screens. Please join us as writer-director Amber Sharp takes us on a unique and fascinating journey which might take us right back to our own realities.
