Gay sex isn't always easy. Particularly when it's being filmed.

Lucas Near-Verbrugghe and Aaron Costa Ganis, the leads of the new film Lazy Eye, discussed both the technical and emotional requirements for shooting a sex scene between two men in this exclusive clip.

"It's not a porn. There's certain things where we have to be creative about the way we show. It becomes sort of a dance," said Near-Verbrugghe, who portrays Dean.

"If we didn't have the intimacy that you see, the rest of the movie isn't worth it," added Costa Ganis (Alex). "The stakes aren't there."

Directed by Tim Kirkman (Dear Jesse), Lazy Eye follows Dean, a 30-something graphic designer from Los Angeles, as he reconnects with his old flame Alex. The pair undergo a physical and emotional journey on a weekend together in Joshua Tree.

Lazy Eye comes out in New York and Los Angeles this weekend, with a DVD and VOD release following next Friday. Watch the clip below.
