"Looking is fine; tasting is better..."

Or so claims the nefarious shop owner played by Doug Jones in a new short film.  The film is "The Candy Shop".  It's an allegorical fairytale about the exploitation of children.

"The Candy Shop" was a project put together by groups that included Whitestone Motion Pictures and Street Grace Ministry, both of Atlanta, GA.  The film was made in response to the growing problem of child sex trafficking.  More children are abused this way in Atlanta than any other city in the U.S. and apparently the city ranks 10th worldwide.
