Agim and Gëzim, identical twins in their thirties, have a strong bond of brotherly love. They are deaf, but this doesn’t get in the way of their everyday life in their bright, airy apartment in Tirana. One day they receive news, which changes everything: they have a rare genetic disease and will also lose their sight. Ana, Gëzim's girlfriend, makes the men a cup of coffee, helps them put on new shoes, and the brothers sit down to an existential decision.

“The second feature from Gentian Koci is superb: a wrenchingly sad existential drama that is driven by phenomenal performances from Portuguese actor brothers Rafael and Edgar Morais” (ScreenDaily).

Filmography: Daybreak (2017).
