Awards Won:

BEST THRILLER (SHORT) – 18th Hollywood Reel Independent Film Festival

“Chris Roe has given audiences a dark, eloquent tale which for all its brevity plunges us into a world that remains a potent memory long after the credits roll. Shot with elegance by Alex Wysocki and enriched by a score by Jonathan Hartman which has a classic feel, mister Roe’s ‘A Tale of Two Sisters’ is made with a welcome love of style and subtlety. ”
Clive Barker – Director & Writer of Hellraiser, Nightbreed, Candyman & Lords of Illusion
