“One True Love combines my two greatest creative loves; crime and escapism,” said Candelaria. “As a kid born and raised in New York City, California always embodied the American Dream in my eyes. The type of paradise that promised a better life across the country, full of year-round sunshine and relaxed beach vibes. Our characters are so focused on trying to escape toward their dreams of a better life in this world that they fail to recognize that anyone who helps you steal, no matter how well you take care of them, can never truly be trusted.”
