Synopsis
Friendship and rebellion - but how will a secret play out in the masculine world of motocross? Willy and Jojo are best friends. They share a passion for motocross - whereas Willy uses it to honour his deceased father, it is only by excelling in the sport that Jojo’s father will notice him. Also the masculine world or racing is perfectly suited to suppress their own insecurities. Yet when Willy one fateful night discovers the hidden love life of Jojo, he will be forced to take sides in the wave of homophobia that follows.

Viewers find 'Block Pass' deeply moving, effectively blending drama and comedy to explore themes of friendship, rural homophobia, and the complexities of adolescence. The film's portrayal of a motocross-loving community and the personal struggles of its characters, especially around hidden sexuality, resonates authentically with audiences. Despite its emotional depth, some felt the film dragged at times and would have benefited from tighter editing and more balanced character development.
