If you wish you could see a "Dude, Where's My Car" for girls or a "Romy and Michelle" for brunettes, look no further. Two lovable idiots draw on the power of their combined wits and the power of friendship in a journey that can only be described as totally unnecessary and preposterous.

Mission Statement

Where is the Dumb&Dumber (not to mention Dumb&DumberER) for women? We are as fallible and silly and our relationships can be just as strong. Women can be mothers, sisters, daughters, and teachers but we need representation of likable idiots in media who have agency over their own bodies and choices.

The Story

WHAT IS THIS?!

"Dumb Rich Sluts" is an ode to my two favorite things: idiots who love each other. Patty and Sandra live together and play together. They share a special bond of female friendship that is rarely depicted in media between otherwise shallow people. And they want what we all want coming out of the last few years: a fun, flirty, good time!

RIGHT NOW?!?!

Now, more than ever we need to see women who haven't had to triumph over adversity in order to live fulfilling lives. A woman who is "dumb" or a "slut" isn't necessarily bad or deserving of derision and in fact can be a great time or a great friend. As women's bodily autonomy is increasingly up for debate, we of course need movies that depict great crusaders for our causes but also movies that depict other kinds of people who deserve the same rights, including the right to wander around this earth for a little while like a total idiot.

HOW'S IT GOING?!!?!

We are READY! Our shoot dates are scheduled for the beginning of May. The pitch video and teaser we shot without a single dime. Imagine what we can create with your support.Once we've wrapped, Editor Gwen Carole will work Composer, Your Mom, LLC to cut together the funniest short with the most compelling fabulous score. Then a viewing party for family and friends, send out the short to festivals gallore, and eventually release the full short to the internet for the WORLD to see! Joining our effort in any capacity will help you skip the line see this movie!

But like, HOW CAN I HELP?!?!?!

Great q, babe! Here are all the ways you can join our team!

BUT WHERE DOES THE MONEY GO?!?!?!?

IF we meet our goals, the money will go primarily to the cast and crew, supporting working artists in Los Angeles. 

IF we exceed our goals by $1000, we can buy a monitor for the camera, which will greatly expedite the project. We will also be able to apply to film festivals, bringing a little piece of all of us to a wider audience. 

IF we exceed our goals by $2000, we will be able to throw a Sluts-worthy premiere party.
