Our first episode of the SXSW Film Festival features all return guests to the show! We love seeing familiar faces, and it's especially impressive that these filmmakers are all regulars on the film festival circuit.  Pussy Mask is a music video for Peaches' new song (of the same name), directed by Leah Shore, who we had on at last year's SXSW for her short film Puss. We're sensing a trend in the titles of her projects...anyway, this is an animated music video that features dancing vaginas (of varying colors) wearing masks. It's glorious. And Leah shares how she first met Peaches, some of her favorite Peaches lyrics, and her plans for (hopefully) catching some strange while in Austin, Texas during the festival.Really Good Rejects is a documentary centered around Reuben Cox, who makes some of the most unique and sought after guitars for some of the biggest names in the music industry, including Jackson Browne, Carrie Brownstein (of Sleater-Kinney) and Aaron Dessner (of The National). Director Alice Gu (who we had on last year for her documentary The Donut King), shares how she got connected with Reuben Cox, which musicians she was most excited about interviewing, and the unexpected vulnerability they shared with her.Horse Brothers is a short film co-directed and co-written by Fabian Velasco and Milos Mitrovic (who also stars in the film), both of which we had on at Slamdance 2020 for their feature length film Tapeworm. Horse Brothers is a thriller that takes you on a crazy ride with two brothers, a talking horse, a bathtub, and a boat. We get into their process of coming up with unique storylines, filming during a pandemic, and the trials and tribulations of working with horses.The SXSW Film Festival runs from March 11th-20th, check out their website for online and in person ticket options before it's too late!...and Thanks to our friends over at Lost Republic for sponsoring  our SXSW 2022 coverage this year, and for being the official whiskey of The Bitch Talk Podcast!
