TWINS
Film Introduction

This film was made in the summer of 2002 when my wife, Mary Ellen Mark, was completing the photography for her new book on twins.

Mary Ellen’s studio was a tent, pitched on a volleyball court, at the Twins Days Festival in Twinsburg, Ohio.

When Mary Ellen had finished photographing a set of twins we took them behind the backdrop to a small studio, where we had two cameras and a sound recorder, and there we asked each set of twins twenty questions.

This film is constructed from their answers - I hope you enjoy it.
