Indie Memphis announces film-fest slate, featuring ‘Nickel Boys’
This year’s Indie Memphis slate also features several films that screened in competition at this summer’s prestigious Cannes Film Festival, most notably “All We Imagine As Light,” which won that festival’s Grand Prix — essentially second prize. Set in contemporary Mumbai, it’s written and directed by Payal Kapadia. (Courtesy Indie Memphis)
One of the year’s most highly anticipated films, an adaptation of author Colson Whitehead’s Pulitzer-winning novel “Nickel Boys,” will be the centerpiece selection of the 27th Indie Memphis Film Festival.

Chris Herrington has covered the Memphis Grizzlies, in one way or another, since the franchise’s second season in Memphis, while also writing about music, movies, food and civic life. As far as he knows, he’s the only member of the Professional Basketball Writers Association who is also a member of a film critics group and has also voted in national music critic polls for Rolling Stone and the Village Voice (RIP). He and his wife have two kids and, for reasons that sometimes elude him, three dogs.
