Two young Premier League footballers share a hotel room the night before a big game – their first ever Champions League match. Out of nowhere, one kisses the other. This one act will echo through the next ten years of their careers.

The Pass is an incredibly personal film, with most of the action taking place within hotel rooms, causing palpable tension throughout. Given that there are still no openly gay Premier League footballers, this exploration of coming to terms with one’s sexuality has a potent urgency which makes it thoroughly absorbing.
