Twins Days | A Short Doc from Alex Markman on Vimeo.

I get bored of posting videos of surfing, skating and Bondi sunsets, so sometimes I just like to throw something a little bit weird/interesting into the mix.

Today’s video certainly ticks that box. It’s about a twin festival that takes place in the town of Twinsburg, Ohio.

Twins Days, as it is known, is a festival for biological twins that has taken place every summer since 1976. It’s the largest annual gathering of twins in the world.

In this film, twins discuss what it’s like to have an identical other half, and the joy of being surrounded by thousands of other twins, if only for a few days.
