Two Wolves - Inspired by the Cherokee parable, Two Wolves follows two sisters, Val and Claudia, whose lives diverge in profoundly different directions despite growing up together — same home, same circumstances, same lineage.

Directed by Gabriela Tollman, Two Wolves is intimate, emotional, and visually bold — a meditation on fate, survival, and the internal war between the darkness we inherit and the light we strive to create. Featuring powerful performances by Paola Núñez and María Elena Laas. Directed by Gabriela Tollman (00:06:44) New Jersey Premiere
