The series based on Zelda Williams’ short will chronicle the lives of the men and women working in the BDSM Industry.
Gunpowder & Sky has partnered with Zelda Williams to develop her short film “Shrimp,” which premiered this year at the Tribeca TV Festival, into a weekly half-hour series.
Written, directed, produced by and starring Williams, who is Robin Williams’ daughter, the show will chronicle the lives of people who work and play in a Los Angeles bondage discipline sadism and masochism (BDSM) dens.

“We were really drawn to ‘Shrimp’ because Zelda was able to take a generally taboo topic, turn it on its head and tap into the day-to-day happenings of the dominatrix community and tell their story in an authentic way,” said Van Toffler, CEO of Gunpowder & Sky. “At Gunpowder & Sky, we’re constantly looking for ways to support new filmmakers who push the envelope to tell great stories, and we are particularly proud of this strong female-driven story that Zelda unleashes to the world.”
Here is the short film that started this. VERY much worth the watch!
