Interesting facts
Shrimp is a 2018 short comedy-drama film written and directed by Zelda Williams. It stars Conor Leslie, Paulina Singer, and Williams as dominatrices in a Los Angeles BDSM den. The title of the film is a reference to the term given to the dominatrices' male clients.
Production
Writer/director Zelda Williams stated that she was inspired to create Shrimp after a man at a bar mistook her for a dominatrix. Following a look into a local BDSM den, Williams found the den to be "a different world" from fictional portrayals prior to her film. Describing the dens as "incredibly understanding" and "non-judgmental", Williams commented that their foundation is based "on consent and openness".
