As Sugar, a dark, compelling drama, is set to screen at three prestigious film festivals this fall around the world, its writer, director, and star, Alyssa Brayboy, sat down for an exclusive interview with the Emmreport.

“After watching Sugar, it wasn’t hard to see all the buzz regarding the film and Alyssa Brayboy,” says Sherman. “Expect great things from her and Buttons Productions.”

Produced with Elisa Vazquez and Jillian Stewart, Brayboy’s short film delves into the gritty and complex lives of three sex workers, exploring their unique relationships and the harsh realities they face. The film offers a raw, unfiltered look into their daily struggles and the personas they adopt to navigate their world.
