About The Florida Project

The Florida Project, directed by Sean Baker, is a poignant and heart-wrenching portrayal of childhood innocence and poverty in America. Set in the shadow of Disney World, the film follows the adventures of six-year-old Moonee (Brooklynn Prince) and her friends as they navigate the colorful and seedy world of budget motels on the outskirts of Orlando.

Baker's film is a masterful blend of gritty realism and whimsical fantasy, capturing the beauty and tragedy of childhood in equal measure. The young cast, led by the remarkable Prince, deliver performances that are both naturalistic and deeply affecting, while Willem Dafoe shines as the motel manager struggling to keep his guests and his own life in order.

The Florida Project is a film that lingers long after the credits roll, a haunting reminder of the harsh realities that exist just beyond the glittering facade of the American Dream. As Rolling Stone's Peter Travers notes, "The Florida Project is a movie that sneaks up on you with its artistry and emotional heft. It's a film that will break your heart and make you feel alive."
