ALWAYS LOOKING: TITUS BROOKS HEAGINS explores the work of photographer Titus Brooks Heagins and the challenging questions his photos pose about the systemic and casual exclusions and neglect of society's most vulnerable communities of color.

Through verite footage following Titus into the field, plus interviews with family, colleagues, and mentees, ALWAYS LOOKING: TITUS BROOKS HEAGINS examines a complex, talented, passionate, and compassionate figure.
