SANCTUARY OF HER, 26min., USA
Directed by Geoff Poister
Two identical twin sisters from Iran create mesmerizing paintings that reflect a major conflict in their lives. Physically, they are two people. But psychologically they feel they are one. The single persona cannot exist in the real world, so the sisters invented an imaginary space where they can go to create their paintings. The mythical person who lives in the imaginary world has taken on a life of her own. As she is growing up and changing, she appears to be guiding the future of the twins in real life.
