PICCIN GEMELLONE

19: min, 5.1 sorround sound
Two twin brothers, divided by the world they live in. One has everything, the other is left with nothing.
They argue, drift apart - until one of them shatters into a hundred pieces. Between fairy-tale imagery
and fleeting moments of everyday life in Berlin, a shimmering portrait emerges: of family, inequality,
and the vast whole hidden within the smallest details.

The peaceful coexistence of twin brothers comes under threat when they develop opposing views
on whether there is such a thing as ‘mine’ and ‘yours.’ What once began as a documentary exploring
his brother’s shopping addiction became a simultaneously archetypal and contemporary parable. Set
between a timeless, allegorical forest and Kreuzberg’s rowdy Rio-Reiser-Platz, Tibor Koehne fluidly
navigates between formats and visual languages to breathe new life into this ancient dilemma.
