La Brea - Synopsis

La Brea is a science fiction TV series that first premiered in 2021. The show's premise revolves around a mysterious and dramatic event in Los Angeles, where a massive sinkhole opens up in the La Brea Tar Pits area of Wilshire Boulevard. This sinkhole creates a chaotic and dangerous environment, swallowing buildings, vehicles, and people. The series primarily focuses on the Harris family, who are profoundly affected by this event.

Eve Harris, a mother separated from her husband Gavin, is a central character. She falls into the sinkhole along with her son, Izzy, and several others. Once inside, they find themselves in a primeval world, inhabited by prehistoric creatures and lush vegetation, which is starkly different from the urban landscape of Los Angeles. This strange, ancient land is fraught with dangers and challenges that the group must navigate to survive.

Meanwhile, above ground, the story follows Gavin Harris, Eve's estranged husband, who has a troubled past and is struggling with his mental health. Gavin begins to experience mysterious visions related to the sinkhole, which leads him to believe that his family might still be alive in the alternate world. He teams up with Dr. Sophia Nathan and Agent Alex Velez from the Department of Homeland Security to understand the phenomenon and find a way to rescue the survivors.

The series blends elements of family drama with science fiction and adventure. The narrative oscillates between the two worlds, exploring the survivors' efforts to understand their surroundings and find a way back home, and the efforts of those on the surface to comprehend and resolve the mystery of the sinkhole.

Throughout the series, the concept of parallel universes and time distortions becomes central. The survivors in the primeval world encounter not only prehistoric dangers but also other people who have fallen through similar sinkholes in different times and places. This adds complexity to the plot, as it touches on themes of destiny, time, and the interconnectedness of different timelines and realities.

As the series progresses, the connection between Gavin's visions and the events in the primeval world becomes more evident. The show delves into the idea that Gavin’s visions are more than mere hallucinations, suggesting a deeper, mystical connection to the sinkhole and the alternate world.

La Brea has been noted for its ambitious storytelling and special effects, which bring the primeval world to life. The series also touches on emotional themes of family, separation, and the human instinct for survival and connection. While it has been met with mixed reviews, particularly regarding its scientific plausibility, it has gained a following for its imaginative premise and the intertwining of personal drama with science fiction elements.
