About the Film: Pit Stop takes a subtle and eloquent approach in telling the parallel stories of two gay men in a small Texas town. Far from the gay centers of the world, director Yen Tan explores the complex and often forgotten lives of gay men in small-town America. The understated, contemplative nature of the main characters Ernesto and Gabe’s story is told from the perspective of an observer, allowing us—even if just for a moment—to understand what it means to be an outsider.

This film contains adult themes and may not be suitable for people under 16.
