Two twins, who look a lot like each other, decided to see who was best at being a ringmaster.
A surreal, vivid construction of movements, captured on Super 8 depicting a competitive and at times vicious streak of a female.

An exploration of coded choreography, with particular attention paid to the female form re-telling the male domain of a ringmaster.
