The Popcorn List Pop Up Series: Fucktoys (One Night Only)

Part-time sex worker, full-time chaos magnet, AP is convinced that 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 Big Freedia) tells her she needs $1,000 and a sacrificial lamb to lift her curse. Armed with neither, she sets off on a bizarre quest with her kindred spirit Danni (Sadie Scott) through Trashtown, USA—a dystopian, neon-drenched sprawl of assorted oddballs, Tom of Finland cops, and strip clubs galore.
Channeling the cinematic stylings of French New Wave, cross-pollinated with the rebellious vibe of 90s-era Gregg Araki, Fucktoys is rude, crude, unhinged, girlypop middle finger to filmic convention. The film features a spunky and beloved cast that includes 13 Reasons Why’s Brandon Flynn, The Comeback’s Damian Young, and a knockout performance by Heated Rivarly’s François Arnaud. Sriram’s Fucktoys took home the Best SHOUT Feature film at the 2025 Sidewalk Film Festival.
