TWINSTERS follows the story of actress Samantha Futerman and budding fashion designer Anaïs Bordier, twin sisters who were separated shortly after birth and adopted by American and French families. Discovering their existence for the first time via social media, their unique experiences are documented through a series of video blogs, Skype conversations, and real-time footage. Every intimate moment is captured, from their first meeting, the DNA test results, home visits, to their first visit back to Seoul. The film explores the ideas of family, adoption, nature vs. nurture and the power of social media. TWINSTERS shares in their journey as it challenges & re-molds conventional definitions of “family.”
