Directed and co-written by Sean Baker (Tangerine), THE FLORIDA PROJECT is the story of precocious six year-old Moonee (Brooklynn Prince) and her ragtag group of friends whose summer break is filled with childhood wonder, possibility and a sense of adventure. Living at a motel in the shadow of Disney World, Moonee is seemingly oblivious to the struggles of adults around her, including her mother Halley (Bria Vinaite), and motel manager/father-figure Bobby (played by Willem Dafoe in his Oscar®-nominated performance). This critically acclaimed film is a vibrant yet heartbreaking portrait of life on the fringe.
