Candy Land follows Remy (Olivia Luccardi), a seemingly naive and devout young woman, who finds herself cast out from her religious cult.  With no place to turn, she immerses herself into the underground world of truck stop sex workers a.k.a. “lot lizards,” courtesy of her hosts, Sadie (Sam Quartin), Riley (Eden Brolin), Liv (Virginia Rand) and Levi (Owen Campbell).  Under the watchful eye of their matriarch, Nora (Guinevere Turner), and enigmatic local lawman, Sheriff Rex (Billy Baldwin), Remy navigates between her strained belief system and the lot lizard code to find her true calling in life.

Candy Land is written and directed by John Swab, and produced by Swab and Jeremy M. Rosen, who also music supervised, with a score from multi-GRAMMY® Award winning producer, David Sardy, and memorable needle drops from the likes of Porno For Pyros, Dwight Twilley, and Crowded House.  Robert Ogden Barnum and Michael Reiser serve as executive producers.
