Introduction -- Origins of the Film -- The Making of The Florida Project -- Reception |
| Summary |
"The award-winning The Florida Project focuses on a single mother, her young daughter, and her daughter's friends who live in a run-down motel near Disney World, too poor to afford more stable housing but with barely enough money to keep them off the streets. Although his previous films had captured some attention on the film-festival circuit, it was this film that brought Sean Baker greater notoriety as an independent filmmaker. Murphy examines the film in the context of Baker's career and indie cinema generally, covering aspects of the film from conception and writing to financing, filming, and distribution. He also uses The Florida Project in part as a case study to better understand contemporary independent cinema"-- Provided by publisher |
