00:02 - Hi, I'm Esteban Arango.
00:07 I'm the director of "Ponyboy"
00:08 and I'm so excited to be sharing this movie with you all.
00:12 "Ponyboy" is the story of a Salvadoran American
00:15 intersex sex worker who goes on the run
00:18 to save his neck from the mob and his abusive pimp
00:22 after one of his johns dies.
00:24 So to get a clean break,
00:26 Ponyboy finds himself facing painful memories
00:30 of growing up intersex and the rift
00:33 that his gender created in his family.
00:35 This movie is emotional, it's thrilling, it's dreamy,
00:41 and we made it with lots of love in New Jersey.
00:45 So don't miss it.
00:46 "Ponyboy" will be playing in the US Dramatic Competition,
00:50 Sundance 2024.
00:52 So I'll see you at the Q&A.
