Based off an autobiographical play by Miamian Tarell Alvin McCraney, Moonlight chronicles the life of Chiron, a young black boy living in a housing project with his drug-addicted single mother. He is struggling to understand his own sexuality while growing up poor in a part of Miami many of us never see or talk about.
