SYNOPSIS
LIVIN’ WITH THE DEVIL is a heartfelt romantic comedy about a young couple discovering the consequences of being negligent towards their responsibilities. Adam and Talia must confront their daily life challenges and navigate jealousy, self-discovery and personal hardships as they grapple with newfound opportunities in their personal and professional spheres under the same roof.
TONE
(Can romcom’s be taken seriously?)
Based on a true story, LIVIN' WITH THE DEVIL is a show with the humour of Romcoms such as THE PROPOSAL and WHAT HAPPENS IN VEGAS, matched to the urban romance feel of THAT AWKWARD MOMENT. Adam and Talia are nestled into this Tom and Jerry chase in their mid-20s as international students new to the city of London. The show is filled with moments of cozy light-heartedness and offers a painfully relatable, fun watch for all ages.
​
But underneath it all, comedy is used as a blanket to explore more raw, intimate emotions. In a world where everything is on fast play, with soulmates just one swipe away and minor 'red flags' and icks decide over relationships in seconds, this show explores human behaviour, gender dynamics and most importantly the flawed moral compass of this generation.
THE WORLD
One of the world’s best cities to live in with a great quality of life and luxury is London. With millions of international students and immigrants coming in every year to this posh lifestyle, the cost of living here is a challenge for many.
Students coming in with dreams and aim to ‘making it’ spend half their time working their way to pay rent and bills just to survive through the month. In the middle of this battle between the rich and the dreamers is where our characters who are both international students working part time jobs for a living, come into play.
We explore the lifestyle led by students and youngsters, adapting to the city, adjusting to reality, dating culture and other things that we miss to see behind all the house parties and romantic dates that are usually glamorised in today’s romcoms. Live in relationships are a new age of serious commitment in a relationship and this series shows the reality of how quickly things can change if it doesn’t go the way you hoped.
