Details

In 2003, the infant Chinese twin sisters Mia and Alexandra were found in a cardboard box. They ended up in an orphanage and were put up for adoption, at which time the authorities apparently decided that it was a good idea to separate them, and to keep silent about the fact that they were twins. Twin Sisters tells their story from the perspective of both sets of adoptive parents: one from Sacramento, California, the other from a tiny village in picturesque Norway. Through a series of coincidences that they later attribute to fate, the parents meet each other during the adoption procedure in China and launch an investigation that reveals the little girls are sisters.

Spoonixel Amateur movie with Big budget
Lancoor A very feeble attempt at affirmatie action
Kaydan Christian A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
Juana what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.
ssinai This is one of those treasures you unwittingly stumble across every so often. I came across the movie while browsing the PBS website. It's the story of twin infant girls in China who were adopted by different families - one from California and the other from Norway, and traces the communication and visits between the two. I don't know that there was a deep message or lesson, but it was just fascinating to watch the two girls growing up and seeing how attached to each other they were, even though they lived so far away. Although it doesn't delve into the scientific aspects of nature vs. nurture, it also gives some insight about how much genetics and environment has to do with the development of people's personalities.On top of that, the photography and music were excellent.
