CGiii Comment
Inhumanity, exploitation and a tenderness that breaks violently.
Bizarre. Sick. Cruel.
Sexual confusion versus sexual necessity.
Horrible music and a little too arty for its own good.
Disturbing and important.

The(ir) Blurb...
In the 1970s a music promoter plucks Siamese twins from obscurity and grooms them into a freakish rock'n'roll act. A dark tale of sex, strangeness and rock music.
