Film Synopsis

Matyas, a young photographer, leads a perfectly contented life with his wife Claire and their infant son.  Then, one day, he receives some news that completely unnerves him.  His mother, who he believed to have died when he was a child, is still alive.  Even harder to accept is the fact that he has a twin brother, Thomas.   Matyas quickly forms the suspicion that the man claiming to be his brother is an impostor, yet Thomas appears to be sincere in wanting to form a bond with him.  As he looks back into his unhappy past, Matyas tries to fit together the pieces, hoping that he can make sense of this strange new reality...
