From the team that brought you the award winning series, Most Likely To, comes a new film about following your sweet dreams.

SweetNess premieres on March 11th at the Irma & Emilio Nicolas Media Center at Texas Public Radio (321 W Commerce St, San Antonio, TX 78205) with a special evening celebrating film, music, and the art of baking.
