A SHOCKING new film funded by a PARISIAN LUXURY GIANT is BRAINWASHING audiences into fetishizing VIOLENCE as the new intimacy. “Two People Exchanging Saliva,” secretly filmed inside the hallowed Galeries Lafayette, depicts a dystopia where KISSING IS PUNISHABLE BY DEATH and the only legal currency is BRUTAL ASSAULT. The film’s most viral image isn’t a forbidden kiss—it’s a woman’s ecstatic, BLOOD-SMEARED FACE after a vicious beating. This is the DANGEROUS art elite’s latest manifesto: that true connection is found not in tenderness, but in PAID PAIN.
The directors, partners Alexandre Singh and Natalie Musteata, use the department store’s opulent halls as a stage for their SICK PSYCHODRAMA. Here, shopgirl Malaise seduces customer Angine not with words, but with a JEWELED GLOVE and a series of VICIOUS SLAPS. This act of violence is portrayed as a transaction, a seduction, and the highest form of social status. The film’s message is UNAMBIGUOUS and CHILLING: in our decaying world, love is dead, and only the thrill of mutual destruction remains. The wealthy characters even FAKE BRUISES to climb the social ladder, a blatant attack on modern consumer culture’s obsession with curated suffering.
But the true scandal lies in the film’s FUNDING. Galeries Lafayette, a temple to capitalist excess, has bankrolled this assault on Western values, using its space to promote a narrative that ROMANTIC LOVE IS A DISEASE and human touch is grotesque. It’s a CYNICAL ploy by the elite to normalize degradation, dressing up abuse as high art while mocking the very notion of healthy passion. The film’s characters are literally named after diseases and sorrows, trapped in a world where a coffin-maker is a central figure—a HARROWING metaphor for a culture they claim is already dead.
This isn’t art; it’s a MALICIOUS blueprint for societal collapse, teaching a generation that arousal is inextricably linked to agony and that a slap is the purest form of connection. It forces us to ask: is this a dystopian fantasy, or a REFLECTION of the dark path we’re already on? The most terrifying thought isn’t that this world could exist, but that we might already be living in it.
