My Memphis

Told through the hearts and voices of Memphians, My Memphis showcases everything from the city's newly reinvented downtown to its hard-to-find mainstays. It highlights the music, art, sports, outdoor recreation, food and lifestyle that truly make this southern town unique.

Produced and directed by Live From Memphis's Founder Christopher Reyes, My Memphis presents a truly honest and down-to-earth view of the city's culture, entertainment, diversity and small-town atmosphere.

Shot through the eyes of "the young and restless" professional and creative class in Memphis, this film tells the tale of a city on the move, overflowing with opportunities and fun. Everything from the city's booming Downtown to its parks and sports, this story pays homage to the city's musical heritage while embracing today's artists. The city's art, food and small-town atmosphere all have supporting roles.

This film is the answer to the challenge of portraying the "real" Memphis. The three segments ( An Introduction to Memphis, An Insiders' Guide to Memphis and Why Memphis? ) presented by an amazing cast of 25-34 year-olds, offer an engaging and fresh look at the city for both Memphians and non-Memphians. For the non-Memphian the film paints a portrait of Memphis as a vibrant, culturally rich and ethnically diverse city, full of surprising and interesting insights. For the Memphian, it offers the chance to reunite with the city that surrounds you. Its easy to get caught up in a day-to-day routine, My Memphis inspires individuals to rediscover the gems that Memphis has to offer.
