m.imdb.com/title/tt0268690/ I love, adore even, this pared down, minimalist New York drama. It was a biggish production with famous actors (Turturro, McConaughey, Amy Irving) and it was distributed abroad as well. The sisters directed it. Does anyone know what happened to them? I couldn't find any news or credits for them more recent than ten years.
