Set in the “City of Mermaids,” Weeki Wachee Springs, The Florida Project explores imagined human stories in the shadow of the kitsch roadside culture of Postwar America. When a family of alligator wrestling brothers are displaced from their reptile farm by real-estate developers, they attempt to find a new home. Acclaimed downtown auteur Richard Maxwell is featured in the cast of writer/director Tory Vasquez’ latest work.
