Siblings

"Detailed by a predominantly female gaze, Siblings unfolds as a tense and intimate chamber drama that moves with the precision of a psychological thriller. From the very first scene, the film immerses us in the fragile dynamic between two sisters who reunite for a short vacation at the lake, an apparent attempt to help Brianna (played by director and writer Coco Nicole Marshall) escape the pressures of work and everyday life.
However, the trip itself becomes the catalyst for an increasingly intense identity crisis when Beebee’s latent tensions explode during an argument in the car that reveals deeper fractures and unresolved wounds.
What follows is a dance of closeness and rejection between the two sisters, a silent battle in which emotional cracks finally become visible. This is where the film finds its power: in the sharp dialogue, in the micro-expressions, in the ability to portray the family not as a place of consolation, but as a space where bonds can protect or destroy, often at the same time."
