Take Care

Patience is not a virtue the average web video viewer possesses in great amounts. But for those who take the time to hang a while with Virginia, the tattooed, red-headed protagonist in this short film, the payoff is enormous. The humanity and reconciliation that unfold in the story give meaning to its title. And what's especially surprising is that this well crafted film was completed in one week by workshop participants — including photographer Gillian Laub who recently did a remarkable piece for TIME.com — with little or no experience in filmmaking.
