In this mesmerizing Neopolitan fable, 18-year-old conjoined twins who have been exploited by their sleazy father as a novelty item, discover that they could be safely separated, a prospect that’s both exciting and terrifying. “A mood piece humming with energy and marked by wondrous moments.” The Village Voice

film synopsis

Dasy and Viola are conjoined twins. Beautiful and talented teenagers, they are exploited by their lowlife father, who writes the songs they sing at weddings and communions, and by their permanently stoned mother, who sees them as her meal ticket. They are also used by a local Neopolitan priest, who turns them into mystical icons to raise money from his gullible flock; and they capture the perverted eye of a slick manager who lusts after Dasy, promising the girls money and glamour if they sign with him.

But it takes a visiting doctor to tell them what their parents have kept secret: because they are literally joined at the hip, they could be safely separated. For the rebellious Dasy, this could mean the freedom she's always wanted. For the meeker, dependent Viola, the idea of separation is terrifying.

Set in a seaside town just north of Naples, suspended between the real and the surreal, Edoardo De Angelis's lyrical, mesmerizing movie unfolds with an almost fairy-tale logic, its striking images reminiscent of Sorrentino and Fellini. Indivisible will haunt your dreams.
