"The film works through the ties that connect them—biological or not—in a narration that retains suspense without ever neglecting delicacy, leaving grey areas here and there from which the enigmatic, one of a kind personality of Shelly emerges. A reflection on friendship, destiny, and on everyone’s capacity to influence fate, Sisters once again demonstrates Peter Entell’s talent for capturing the intimate in order to make it universal."
