Éva and Adél are identical twins in their thirties with very different lives. Adél has found her stability in a reserved workaholic lifestyle and is about to move to Norway to work as a radiologist. Éva seems to have it all: a beautiful baby, a luxurious home and a confident and successful husband. Their lives turn upside down when they meet the down-to-earth optimistic crane-worker Ákos, who is everything they are not. And while it all seems to be about Ákos, the situation leads them to realise that what they are missing is… each other.
Soaked in an enjoyable light romantic feel, Fanni Szilágyi’s promising debut feature provides a surprisingly mature and pertinent reflection on some of the common problems faced by people in their thirties today. A well-rooted and outstanding performance from Natasa Stork in the principal double role.
