UB Spotlight: Letitia Wright and Tamara Lawrance Talk ‘The Silent Twins’
Silence was their bond. Imagination set them free.
Letitia Wright and Tamara Lawrance star in “The Silent Twins,” only in theaters next Friday September 16th via Focus Features.
“The Silent Twins” is the astounding true story of twin sisters who only communicated with one another. As a result, they created a rich, fascinating world to escape the reality of their own lives.
Based on the best-selling book The Silent Twins.
“The Silent Twins” is set in the 1970s and 1980s where it follows the haunting story of June and Jennifer Gibbons, twins from the only Black family in a small town in Wales.
Feeling isolated from that unwelcoming community, the pair turn inward and reject communication with everyone but each other, retreating into their own fantasy world of artistic inspiration and adolescent desires.
After a spree of vandalism inspired by an American boy they both idolize, the girls, now teenagers, are summarily sentenced to Broadmoor, an infamous psychiatric hospital, where they face the choice to separate and survive or die together.
