F*CKTOYS with But...You're A Dolphin!

"F*CKTOYS"

Annapurna Sriram (Dir), 106 minutes, USA, Western New York Premiere

A lush, 16mm fever dream that reimagines the Major Arcana of the Tarot through the story of AP: a struggling pollyanna 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- it can be lifted. So she makes money the only way she knows how: scootering her way deeper into the night, and into the uncouth underbelly of Trashtown.

Dark, irreverent, and sexy, the film cascades through a series of larger-than-life 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 of urban decay and pastel cotton candy skies.
