Yeah. It was like this.

Candy was ahead of her time, and timeless. Living her dreams in a fast changing, and often hostile, world that never fully accepted or appreciated her. This film depicts the beauty and the squalor of the early 70's in NYC, the stark pain of a rebel and a pioneer, and ultimately the love required to tell her story.

Thank you, Jeremiah.
