We're excited to keep you in the loop on all things Frameline (with no spam - ever!)
Part-time sex worker, full-time chaos magnet, AP is convinced the universe has it out for her… and she might be right. In Fucktoys — the wild, unfiltered debut from writer/director/star Annapurna Sriram — AP seeks a cosmic reset after a swampy tarot reading (courtesy of NOLA bounce icon Big Freedia) tells her she needs $1,000 and a lamb sacrifice to lift her curse. Armed with neither, she sets off on a bizarre quest with her ex-turned-bestie Danni (Spoiler Alert’s Sadie Scott) through Trashtown, USA — a dystopian, neon-drenched sprawl of assorted oddballs, bondage cops, and strip clubs galore.
Channeling the rebellious vibe of early John Waters and 90s-era Gregg Araki, Fucktoys is rude, crude, and unhinged — an anarchy-fueled middle finger to convention. Assembling a spunky cast of queer darlings which also includes 12 Reason’s Why’s Brandon Flynn and François Arnaud (who also co-stars in Twinless at Frameline49), Sriram took home the Special Jury Award for a Multi-Hyphenate at the SXSW Film Festival.
