Most filmmakers that we are fortunate to meet have a passion for their art, but Annapurna Sriram also possesses an infectious charm and sense of humor that makes us never quite sure what is fact, or a product of her vivid (and sometimes dirty?) imagination.
She was at the Provincetown Film Festival to screen FUCKTOYS for which she has just won that Special Jury Award for Multi-Hyphenate – Narrative Feature at SXSW. Sriram stars in the film as a fun-loving dominatrix who learns from a tarot reader (the fabulous Big Freedia) that she’s been cursed, and the only way to lift the curse is to come up with $1,000 and sacrifice a baby lamb.
And the plot gets deliciously wilder as it unfolds Sriram could barely sit still when she talked to Queerguru ….. we know now that we are going to see and hear from her again a lot more in the future
