Moonlight won the Academy Award® for Best Picture of 2017 and was nominated for eight Academy Awards. The film chronicles the life of Chiron (Sanders), a boy growing up in a rough neighborhood of Miami, Florida. At once a vital portrait of contemporary African American life and an intensely personal and poetic meditation on identity, family, friendship and love, the film has been praised as a groundbreaking piece of cinema that reverberates with deep compassion and universal truths. The story chronicles the life of a young black man from childhood to adulthood as he struggles to find his place in the world while growing up. This is a profoundly moving portrayal of the moments, people, and unknowable forces that shape our lives and make us who we are. (Gary Reber)
