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.

Contentar Best movie of this year hands down!
CommentsXp Best movie ever!
SanEat A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."
Zlatica One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.
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.
