Memphis is wild at heart. But as a young man with cerebral palsy, he feels stuck. His parents waver between supporting his desire for independence and pushing him towards a more pragmatic reality. YOUR FRIEND, MEMPHIS is an intimate portrait of Memphis' dogged determination to bridge the distance between the world's expectations and his own aspirations.

It’s a poignant but ultimately tough tale that reflects a reality in which youthful hope almost inevitably gives way to the realization that, by one’s twenties, things are never going to get better.

Despite the slow-but-steady pace, the film centers the important experience of a differently abled person living their life on their terms.

It might be easy to dismiss Memphis as a loser, but the film asks viewers to enter the headspace of some who doesn’t get the job, the girl, or a fair shot.

David Zuckers access to ... moments, both heartwarming and cringeworthy, is remarkable.

I overall recommend Your Friend, Memphis and would be a good double-header with The Peanut Butter Falcon
