A heartbreaking tale of two lesbian lovers
“Two of Us,” a heartbreaking story of lesbian love, starts tomorrow, Friday, Feb. 5, virtually and at the M.V. Film Center. While their love might seem entirely acceptable in today’s world, it’s not so, considering the age, culture, and location of these two gay pensioners.
Lippo Meneghetti directed his first feature, shown at the 2019 Toronto Film Festival. It stars German actress Barbara Sukowa as Nina Dorn, and Martine Chevallier as Mado (Madeleine) Girard. Awardwinning Sukowa is known for her Rainer Werner Fassbinder and Margarethe von Trotta roles, and Chevallier for hers at the Comédie-Française.
