Between Sisters

— A subtle and intimate look at two sisters: Teresa, 89, whose health is failing, and Ornella, 68, who spends much of each day helping her older sister. Viewers witness the day-to-day interactions, sometimes strained and sometimes loving. Teresa is moody and often unhappy, refusing to discuss death or much about the past. Ornelia wants to know more about their family’s history and pushes Teresa for information. What emerges is a sensitive look at siblings, aging, and the secrets we all hold. (Shown at True/False Film Fest 2016.)
