Whitestone is proud to announce our next major filmmaking initiative, a short film with a very important cause.
The Candy Shop is a thirty minute film that Whitestone is now in preproduction for and will release in November. This film is being made for the Doorpost Film Project, and with support from 12Stone® Church and Street Grace.
The film is a Fairytale/Parable about the child sex trafficking epidemic that has overrun our city of Atlanta. We are using the film to not only raise awareness but provoke meaningful action towards this issue taking place in our own backyard.
Up to 500 underaged girls a month are trafficked for sex here in our city of Atlanta.
It’s the number one city in the country for child sex trafficking..
The 10th in the world.
This plague has gone on for too long, and now we at Whitestone, in cooperation with Doorpost, 12Stone® Church and StreetGrace want to put a stop to it.
This film represents the spearhead of a citywide and possibly a nationwide campaign.
It is not a documentary. It is not a PSA. It is the beginning of a movement.
Watch the below documentary for more information on Whitestone, the film and the cause behind it.
Then visit the Street Grace website to find out more information and get involved directly.
We need the support of our friends and fans now more than ever. Spread the word, follow the process, and when the film comes out share it with everyone you know.
Whitestone has signed over 100% of our right to profit from the film and has donated all merchandizing rights to Street Grace to help stop this issue in our city.
More information about the premiere, the campaign and what you can do to get involved will be coming out in the next few weeks. Check back often for updates, or follow us on Twitter for real time info.
