Even Faster Than a Blink

By Tyler Andrew Jones
Directed by Chalia La Tour

When the pandemic hit, Taaliba Campbell gave up her life as an artist and moved back home to Richmond to help her mother run their family business, Campbell’s. A year after insurmountable grief and loss, and as the prospect of a loan begins to slip through their fingers, the whole family gathers to decide what is to become of Campbell’s and, unknowingly, each of their lives.
