Born on 9/11

The feature-length documentary follows a set of fraternal twins born during the attacks on September 11, 2001 who were eligible to vote in their first presidential election this past year marked by chaos in the United States. On their journey, COVID-19 derails any sense of normalcy, forcing them to miss major American milestones including prom and graduation. As the pandemic worsens, the country spirals, creating intense disillusionment in the twins and their peers. The twins serve as a physical marker for the moment the world changed. They are a microcosm of the problems facing future generations of Americans and guide us through their chaotic world.
