Nix­en

Two sisters, Nene and Ava, up in the air. When they were young, they sang together. Now there's a child, a job at a restaurant, a boyfriend. And a mother as critical of them as ever. One of them arranges a performance without telling the other. The other one smashes her life to pieces because of a feeling. And suddenly it seems possible and necessary to leave the comfortable bubble of not-daring. Accompanied by an original jazz score, Sirens paints dancerly pictures of keeping close and letting go. A film about symbiotic sister love and irrationality.
