Two People Exchanging Saliva wins the Oscar for Best Live Action Short Film ! 🏆 A moment of pure joy for everyone who brought this film to life…
On stage, a moment to name “Nila Jane”, as just two days earlier, @zaramirebrahimi had welcomed her daughter into the world.
Cinema and life meeting in the same breath...

“Nila Jane,
you are the hope in a world that is dark,
and absurd and ridiculous and horrifying.
But that is why we make films, isn’t it?
Because we believe that art can change people’s souls…” - Alexandre Singh

@two_people_exchanging_saliva is written and directed by @nmusteata and Alexandre Singh, produced by @misiafilms in association with Alambic Production, and executive produced by @isabelle.huppert and @juliannemoore

Two People Exchanging Saliva remporte l’Oscar du Meilleur Court Métrage en Prise de Vue Réelle ! 🏆Un moment de pure joie pour toutes celles et ceux qui ont donné vie à ce film.

Sur scène, un moment pour prononcer le nom de « Nila Jane », alors que deux jours plus tôt, @zaramirebrahimi avait accueilli sa fille au monde.
Le cinéma et la vie se rencontrant dans un même souffle…

« Nila Jane,
tu es l’espoir dans un monde sombre,
absurde, ridicule et terrifiant.
Mais c’est pour cela que nous faisons des films, n’est-ce pas ?
Parce que nous croyons que l’art peut transformer l’âme des gens… »
— Alexandre Singh

Écrit et réalisé par Natalie Musteata et Alexandre Singh, le film est produit par Misia Films en association avec Alambic Production, et produit exécutivement par Isabelle Huppert et Julianne Moore.

Natalie Musteata won the Academy Award for Best Live Action Short Film at the 2026 Academy Awards for TWO PEOPLE EXCHANGING SALIVA, co-directed with her husband, Alexandre Singh. The win resulted in a rare tie, only the seventh in Oscar history.

Armenian Film Society was the first to report Natalie Musteata’s Armenian heritage. In an exclusive interview with Armenian Film Society, Natalie Musteata shared personal insights into her background and provided rare photographs of her grandmother.

Natalie Musteata’s maternal grandmother, Luiza Derderian-Marcoci (January 14, 1926 – August 26, 1999), was born into an Armenian family. Luiza Derderian-Marcoci was an accomplished actress, and had a decades-long career spanning stage, television, and radio. In the years between 1949 and 1980, she performed extensively on stage in Romania, and continued her theatrical work in New York in the 1980s with the Hamazkain Theatrical Group.

Natalie Musteata shares that her grandmother spoke to her in both Armenian and Romanian, and although she grew up speaking Armenian, she lost the language after her grandmother’s passing.

Luiza Derderian-Marcoci’s daughter, and Natalie Musteata’s mother, Roxana Marcoci, is Senior Curator in the Department of Photography at The Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York.

Natalie Musteata is a writer, curator, and filmmaker who holds a Doctorate in Art History and a Master’s degree in Film from The Graduate Center.

“But that slap. A punishment, a payment, a seduction, all at once. I could wax on about the allusive power of the film, its potential for mirroring our own sick societies. But what most interests me in this unnerving work is the slapping.” @doreenstfelix

@nmusteata @two_people_exchanging_saliva won an Oscar by showing us how deeply they care about cinema and the lengths they would go to create art at the highest level. Their integrity and generosity is rare and we are so lucky to be part of the beautiful and weird world that you built. Thank you for bringing us alongside you for this insane, ridiculously fun ride

✨ 🇱🇺 Huge congratulations to Luxembourg actress @vickykrieps who played a part in the #Oscars2026 success story, even though audiences never saw her on screen 😎

⭐️ The Luxembourg star provided the voice-over narration for the dystopian short film “Deux Personnes échangeant de la salive” @two_people_exchanging_saliva which won an Oscar for Best Live Action Short Film in Los Angeles on Sunday night 🏆

⭐️ Directed by @nmusteata and Alexandre Singh, the 36-minute French production shared the prize with “The Singers” by Sam A. Davis following a rare tie vote by members of @theacademy
