Daniel Scheinert: Annual Adam D. Kamil Guest Lecture

Daniel Scheinert, originally from Birmingham, Alabama, is one-half of the filmmaking duo Daniels. He’s the kind of director who asks, "What if a corpse farted?"—and then goes on to make Swiss Army Man (2016). He followed that up with The Death of Dick Long (2019), a darkly hilarious film set in his hometown. Then came Everything Everywhere All At Once (2022), an award-winning, mind-bending journey through the multiverse that cemented Daniels’ commitment for blending the surreal with the profound. When he’s not behind the camera, Scheinert is likely at a local alt comedy show, watching sketch videos on YouTube, or experimenting in his kitchen.
