Send us a textWe’re bringing you two SXSW 2025 short films that we absolutely loved!The Singers takes place in a lonely dive bar where an impromptu sing-off will determine the best singer in town. Director Sam A. Davis shares what inspired him to adapt this short story into film, casting first time actors via viral videos on social media, and our shared connection through art and vulnerability.I’m the Most Racist Person I Know tells the story of Lali who ends up on a date with another woman of color for the first time, and it forces her to face hidden prejudices. We were joined by director/writer Leela Varghese, producer Suriyna Sivashanker, and actors Shabana Azeez (return guest from the film Birdeater) and Kavitha Anandasivam to talk representation, internalized racism, and why they fought to keep the title. It sounds like we had a serious conversation, but this one truly goes off the rails with laughter and chaos and sister wives. Enjoy! Follow director Sam A.
