The LGBTQ-focused Inside Out Film Festival is kicking off in Toronto, where the world premiere of the comedy Sisters is acting as the festival’s gala screening.
Sisters follows two best friends Lou (Susie Yankou) and Esther (Sarah Khasrovi) who have long thought of each other as family. Their co-dependency is tested when Lou makes the discovery of a an impossibly chic long-lost half sister, Priya (Kausar Mohammed).
The first look at Sisters sees Lou and Priya at a trendy restaurant, where Lou is struggling to fit in with Priya’s impossibly cool friends.
Sisters was a recipient of Inside Out’s Re:Focus grant that is meant to provide direct financial support to LGBTQ women and nonbinary filmmakers. Yankou makes her feature directorial debut on the film, which she also wrote.
Watch the first look at the film Sisters below.
