Love triangles in films are a very rich and entertaining piece of writing. Specially for a indie film like "Your Sister,Sister" is not an exception. Lynn Shelton, responsible of films like "Humpday", "We go Way Back" and "My Effortless Brilliance" bring this very unique and touching story about a guy, and two half sisters.

The story takes place in the Washington state, with marvelous views, which is the perfect scenario for the sorrow of brothers passing and also the break up of a 7 year lesbian relationship. With all this in mind we have Jack, who is struggling after one year of his brother passing. Her friend Iris, Jack best friend, who suggest him to stay in her parents cabin in Pacific Northwest. Once there he run into Hannah, Iris half sister, who is reeling after an abrupt a 7 year break up. After a night of drinks will lead into this love triangle with nothing that great performances for all of the cast. I smell some Spirit Awards nominations.

Emily Blunt and Romarie DeWitt are the perfect cast for this story and Mark Duplas is superb.
