Hogans: The Twins Who Share A Brain, The

image

An extraordinary case of Siamese twins. Krista and Tatiana Hogan are two year old conjoined twins from Vernon, Canada.

They share a key blood vessel in the brain and most extraordinarily of all, some of the same brain matter. Their mother claims that when one is watching television, the other can see the same images, even if her eyes are closed. But sharing a brain goes way beyond simple vision. Do the twins share the same thoughts? Are they two distinct personalities? Where does consciousness rest? These are the questions the film explores as we follow the twins through the biggest and most important year of their lives so far - the year they learn to walk, talk and become truly conscious of themselves and their unique place in the world.
