    Interview With "The Girl Who Cried Pearls" Directors Chris Lavis & Maciek Szczerbowski
    Mar 6 2026
    "The Girl Who Cried Pearls" is a Canadian animated short film, directed by Chris Lavis and Maciek Szczerbowski. Made through stop-motion animation, the film centers on a young boy who meets and falls in love with a girl who secretly weeps pearls at night. The initial inspiration for the film came during the production of the duo's 2007 short film "Madame Tutli-Putli," when a prop necklace unexpectedly fell apart, scattering pearls across the set as they filmed the climactic scene. The film has received critical acclaim and is nominated at the 98th Academy Awards in the category of Best Animated Short Film. Lavis and Szczerbowski were both kind enough to spend some time speaking with us about their experience and work on the film, which you can listen to below. Please be sure to check out the film, which is now available to stream on YouTube and is up for your consideration for this year's Academy Awards. Thank you, and enjoy!
