Summary
Stopped on track is an intimate and affecting portrait of a middle-aged man, married with two children, who learns he has a malignant tumour. The film tells the story of Frank (Pescel), a man diagnosed within the first minutes of the film as terminally ill with a glioblastome, a tumour growing within an inoperable part of his brain. We follow Frank and his family over the months that he has left as his condition slowly deteriorates and domestic relationships struggle under the weight of his disease.
