ABOUT THE FILM:

Directed by Kansas Bowling, one of the youngest female filmmakers in American history (BC BUTCHER, ONCE UPON A TIME IN HOLLYWOOD), CUDDLY TOYS is a quasi-mockumentary about the horrors and joys of growing up as a young girl in America. Featuring over one hundred actresses and shot entirely on super 16mm film, CUDDLY TOYS is an ambitious, satirical, and unconventional exploitation success in the vein of early John Waters with influences ranging from the gritty, riot grrrl sensibilities of Sarah Jacobson to the tongue-in-cheek artistry of Andy Warhol’s Factory films disguised as a 1970s afterschool special about the bizarre, the gory, and traumatic secrets behind the innocence of girlhood.

Content consideration: this film contains depictions of sexual violence. Viewer discretion is highly advised.
