Award Winning Independent Cinema

A timeless story of human connection and self-discovery, this exquisite coming of age drama chronicles the life of a gay black man from childhood to adulthood as he struggles to find his place in the world while growing up in Miami. Winner of Best Picture at the Oscars and one of the most important films of the year, Moonlight is being hailed as a masterpiece. It spans the youth, adolescence and adulthood of Chiron, growing up poor, gay and black, navigating the drug-plagued inner city, finding love in unexpected places, and discovering the possibility of change within himself. Moonlight will shatter stereotype after stereotype. It is a fiercely intelligent, compassionate film, as one reviewer put it, is "the reason we go to the movies: to understand, to come closer, to ache - hopefully with another".

Moonlight has been awarded the Oscar for Best Picture, Best Supporting Actor (Mahershala Ali), Best Writing Adapted Screenplay.
