The Candy Shop is a fairy tale or parable about the child sex trafficking epidemic. Though the film is dark and atmospheric, it contains no overtly sexual material. In its own way it is very powerful. I would suggest that it is equally applicable when it comes to issues related to pornography in which every woman involved was once a little girl and is still somebody’s daughter.
I wonder if there are some teenage boys who would benefit from watching this short film…
