Virgin Twins
Coming to terms with their dissociative identity disorder diagnosis, Kitoko Mai takes us through their different alters, the roles they play in their life, and how they help them cope with past trauma. Blending genres into something totally unique, Nicole Bazuin (MODERN WHORE) brings her camp and super-stylized direction back to the docu-drama with the exceptionally hilarious and informative THRIVING: A DISSOCIATED REVERIE! – Vincenzo Nappi
