“Unfortunately, “Blink of an Eye,” this short film, is too relevant to what’s going on in society right now. Since I’ve started doing this, I’ve gone on ride alongs with the police department and I’ve talked to the people that are addicted to the drugs and the ones who are trying to help them, this drug is just devouring mankind. I’m praying that this movie will shock people,” said Robbins.
