Moonlight
Barry Jenkins / US, 2016 / 111 min.
An Oscar for Best Film, seven Oscar nominations, dozens of awards: Moonlight received the highest accolades from both the critics and the audiences. An impressive record for a film whose theme is a far cry from mainstream Hollywood – the coming of age of a young black gay man in a crack-infested neighbourhood in Miami. The film’s insistence on the basic humanity of the characters, no matter where they’re from or what they do, struck a chord.
