Q&A with Director of Moonlight, Barry Jenkins | TIFF

"After the election, I got all these messages from people saying 'I didn't know what to do with myself. So I went and saw your film.' If people need to seek it out as a place of solace, or as a reminder that we can have empathy, I'm happy that I didn't wait any longer to make it." Moonlight Director, Barry Jenkins, talks about discovering another layer of his film's importance following the American election. See it now at TIFF Bell Lightbox: http://www.tiff.net/films/moonlight
