What it’s about.

The two join forces to sell a large (stolen) shipment of Castro's private label cigar, the famed "El Mariposa", and suddenly they find themselves enmeshed in the seedy underbelly of a mob-run cigar smuggling ring that's being monitored by the feds.

Who’s in it. Sticks stars Lillo Brancato as Lenny Prince, Justina Machado as Maria, Keith Brunsmann as Mark and David Kriegel as Jewels, among others.
