A Documentary by Molly Snyder-Fink and Kiran Goldman

The film is about the fastest woman in the world- a 2008 Olympic gold medal winning, twenty-one year old from a volatile neighborhood in Kingston, Jamaica – and the girls she inspires- like Janieve, a vibrant high-jumping teenager from a rural community. The film explores the sudden emergence of Jamaicans as the fastest Olympic sprinters and follows these two young women as they run for their lives to put their country on the map.

Fast As She Can premiered at the San Francisco International Festival of Short Films and won Audience Award and the Silver Jury Prize.
