Geminis

Underneath the polish of upper-class propriety so fastidiously maintained by matriarch Lucia, her own twin children have embarked on an incestuous affair. Is Lucia knowingly turning a blind eye to her children’s degenerate affair or is her obsession with keeping up appearances preventing her from seeing the truth? Never judging, moralizing or sensationalizing, Carri follows the twins’ affair recording the slow dissolution of their family until the final, climatic act. Directors’ Fortnight at Cannes.
