Judges Nancy Andrews, Zach Wise, and Jonathan Quilter said “Memphis Poverty masterfully tells an important American story in a non-traditional way, bypassing the literal translation of poverty to strike the soul. The artful blend of documentary moments, poetry, music, cinematic shooting and editing craftsmanship moves our art of storytelling forward in a dramatic way. It was the best use of multimedia in the completion and helps establish a tone for how we might approach complex stories in the future.”
