BUY $10 TICKETS
Living on three different continents, three sisters connected by a lifetime of shared memories find themselves confronting the realities of growing old. Colombian filmmaker Joyce Ventura turns the camera on herself and her two older sisters, Ethy and Bella, capturing intimate conversations and reunions that reveal their strikingly different ways of facing aging, loss, and mortality. With remarkable candor, tenderness, and humor, Three Sisters weaves together fragmented memories, physical vulnerability, and the fear of disappearing into a deeply moving meditation on sisterhood, the passage of time, and cinema’s power to bridge distance and preserve what might otherwise be lost.
Tres hermanas que viven en tres continentes distintos, y quienes comparten y larga vida de recuerdos, se enfrentan con la realidad que implica envejecer. La cineasta colombiana Joyce Ventura se vuelve el centro de la cámara, junto a sus hermanas Ethy y Bella, capturando conversaciones íntimas y reuniones que revelan sus maneras completamente diferentes de enfrentar el envejecimiento, la pérdida y la mortalidad. Con gran candor, ternura y humor, Tres hermanas une recuerdos fragmentados, vulnerabilidad física y el miedo a desaparecer en una profunda meditación sobre la hermandad, el paso del tiempo y el poder que tiene el cine para vencer distancias y preservar lo que, de otro modo, se perdería.
