A kaleidoscopic portrait of life on the margins, this neorealist gem from Palme d’Or winner Sean Baker adopts a child’s perspective to ask what makes a good childhood, and what precludes it. This compassionate film is propelled to exuberant heights by Brooklynn Prince’s effervescent performance.

This biopic portrays a bullied girly-boy, learning self-acceptance as he grows into a revered drag queen and Provincetown’s adored Cher impersonator.
