Twins fascinate us: Romulus and Remus. Castor and Pollux.  We cannot get enough of them.  But what happens when one of them dies? Lone Twin is a documentary told through the eyes of a filmmaker who lost her twin brother in a tragic accident at age 20. To understand the impact of being a lone twin for most of her life, she revisits key relationships to understand how the death of her brother affected her life and loves. She takes us on a journey to four continents, meeting twins between 18 and 80. Even the experts in the film are twins themselves. Lone Twin is a moving yet lighthearted quest for understanding of solitude, togetherness and the universal search for wholeness.
