The Magic City, by Director R. Malcolm Jones, is a motion picture based on hope and resilience played out in a coming of age story laced with sometimes insurmountable tragedies and exhilarating adventures. Characters Tiana, Nia and Amiya initially adversaries, forge a lifelong friendship through hope and adversity in one of Miami’s gritty and unforgiving neighborhoods, Liberty City.

The Young family – millennial parents Stephen and Angela, their daughter Zuri and her pet cat Rocky – juggle careers, marriage, parenthood, social issues and multi-generational dynamics while striving to make a better life for themselves.
