Galician Filmmakers, Sonia and Miriam Albert-Sobrino, known as the Also Sisters, have directed a remarkable
number of films that have been projected in major film festivals such as Edinburgh, Raindance, Cinespaña,
Chicago Underground, etc. The work of these twin sisters, whose peculiar collaboration has often been
characterized as the result of two heads thinking as one, does not stop on a movie set, committed to teaching
the upcoming generations of filmmakers, the Also Sisters work as professors at the University of Utah.
WHY ALSO SISTERS? ALSO SISTERS is Sonia and Miriam’s professional adopted name.
A portmanteau of their last name: ALbert-SObrino and the answer to the all too frequent question: “So, you make
films together? And you are Also Sisters?”
