Dead Ringers

  • Log in or register to post comments

In a world where medical ethics is put to the test, two identical twins, both portrayed by a remarkable actor, lead a life of luxury in the prestigious field of gynecology. The Mantle brothers, one charming and charismatic, the other more introverted and cerebral, run a clinic where innovation and arrogance intertwine. Defying conventions, they specialize in unorthodox and experimental techniques to help their patients, and their fervor for science and success drives them to cross dangerous lines.

As they delve into a world of obsessions, they become ensnared in a spiral of manipulation and self-destruction. The arrival of an intriguing patient complicates the dynamics between the brothers, triggering insecurities and jealousy that they never imagined. Their connection has never been stronger, but it also leads to their downfall; the desire to experiment with the lives of others and their own begins to unravel their fragile identities.

With stunning visual sequences and a haunting atmosphere, the film reflects the obsession with perfection and the dark corners of the human mind. The brothers struggle not only against their inner demons but also with the consequences of playing at being gods in an environment where life and death hang by a thread. A disturbing tale about duality, madness, and the cost of ambition.
