In South Memphis, married artists Bertram Williams and Talibah Safiya transform their creative practices into vehicles for a higher purpose. Enter Mama’s Sundry, a collaborative movement fostering wellness and sustainability through education, service initiatives and a neighborhood garden that produces fresh fruit and vegetables within a community that’s long been designated a food desert.

Brody Kuhar and Joshua Cannon are filmmakers and collaborators based in Memphis, Tennessee. While Cannon is a born and raised Memphian, Kuhar is an Illinois transplant to the South. They're interested in seeking out stories about those who have cultivated their art as a way of being in the world, tuned to some frequency greater than themselves.
