Annapurna Sriram’s first feature film is a lush 16mm fever dream that reimagines The Fool’s Journey in the Tarot through the story of AP, a sanguine young woman seeking salvation from a curse. AP is promised by not one but multiple psychics that, for a cool $1000 and the sacrifice of a baby lamb, the curse can be lifted. So she makes money in the only place she knows how: the uncouth underbelly of Trashtown.
Dark, irreverent, and sexy, AP stumbles upon new characters and absurd situations, each more unhinged than the last. Fucktoys is a campy romp that explores the intersection of intimacy, exploitation, and class in a pre-millenium alternate universe.
The film won the Special Jury Award for a Multi-Hyphenate at SXSW.
