When Trauma Meets Tradition in Madrid's Summer Solstice The Toronto International Film Festival has long been a showcase for innovative storytelling from around the world.
Spanish director Ione Hernández Sáenz brings her debut feature "Sisters" to the Discovery section this year, exploring the complex web of emotions that arises when family and tradition confront trauma.
At its core, "Sisters" is a film about the aftermath of an unspoken tragedy – one that forces a family to confront their own fears, taboos, and unresolved wounds.
