An intimate film capturing eight years in the life of a black family from Philadelphia.

Starting during the Obama era, Christopher "Quest" Rainey, and his wife, Christine'a "Ma Quest" raise a family while nurturing a community of hip hop artists in their home music studio. QUEST is an illumination of race and class in America, and a testament to love, healing and hope.
