'The Florida Project' is a movie about life on the margins, through the eyes of children.

“The Florida Project” is the story of a young mother struggling to pay rent while living in a rundown motel, told through the eyes of her daughter, a rebellious little girl who roams Orlando, engaging in shenanigans with her friends. Jeffrey Brown sits down with filmmaker Sean Baker to discuss how his new movie features characters and real-life struggles not often depicted in cinema.
