Inspired by Edgar Allan Poe's famous 'William Wilson' tale, Cristopharo developed an original, surreal silent film full of homoerotic eros and thanatos. The main character, a prisoner, falls in love with the man jailed in the next cell. That man is both the twin and the opposite of himself, and he is victim of the abuses of the guards. But maybe all of them are part of one same mind and soul. Website | Facebook
