Two People Exchanging Saliva: An Interview w/ Alexandre Singh & Natalie Musteata
Saturday Jan 10, 2026
Saturday Jan 10, 2026
Two People Exchanging Saliva (2025) is an absurdist, genre-blending story about a dystopian world where the currency is slaps to the face and kissing is a criminal offense punishable by death.
This 36-minute Oscar shortlisted live-action short is the creation of two brilliant artists, Alexandre Singh & Natalie Musteata. Andrew sat down with them to discuss how the story came about, the decisions that went into the technical aspects (music, color, setting), what the characters represent about society, and more.

Jane Austen's Period Drama: An Interview w/ Julia Aks & Steve Pinder
Thursday Jan 08, 2026
Thursday Jan 08, 2026
Jane Austen's Period Drama (2025) is the most hilarious film of last year. A comedic parody about women's business inspired by the familiar world of a Jane Austen novel.
This 13-minute Oscar shortlisted live-action short is the brainchild of two remarkably earnest and funny filmmakers, Julia Aks & Steve Pinder. Andrew sat down with them to discuss what got the two of them into the creative arts, the inspiration for the film, and much more. Along the way, there was laughter, there were tears, and there was a surprise that shook the room.

The first of what will become a regular quarterly session between the RevAlmanac team.
