Told in three poignant chapters, Moonlight is a tender, visually stunning meditation on what it means to grow up, to be vulnerable, and to seek connection in a world that often demands the opposite. With unforgettable performances and poetic cinematography, the film offers a rare and deeply human portrait of a life shaped by silence, struggle, and moments of grace.
