SYNOPSIS: THINGS ARE A BIT OFF in Carl’s little world. Born into a life with a single mother who dated many, if not all, of the towns hunters. Spending most of his childhood, surrounded by dead animals and false promises armed Carl with a vivid imagination, and a serious obsession with love. Buoyed by an awe for anything sugar, Carl can’t tell the difference between the things he loved and the things he wanted to eat.

You can’t have you cake and eat it too… or can you?
