Contents/Summary

Summary
Éva and Veronika Kolozs are 95 years old, they are the oldest twins in Hungary. Once world-famous ballerinas who danced on some of the worlds most renowned stages in Germany and throughout Europe, but their careers were curbed dramatically after the Second World War broke out. They suffered under the control of both fascism and communism and were forcefully relocated, losing their jobs, homes, their lovers, and finally their dreams. What remained deeply ingrained in themselves is their love for one other. The short documentary presents a subjective view of the 20th century history using memories, private photographs, diaries, drawings, original archives, and experimental animations.
