Description:
Like a Dutch version of Woody Allen's Hannah and Her Sisters, Zus & Zo explores the messy lives of three frustrated sisters. While Sonja struggles with her writing career, her husband Hugo is having an affair with her artist sister Wanda, and their sister Michelle raises a brood of adopted children. When their brother Nino announces that he's getting married, the sisters are stunned--not only did they think he was gay, but the marriage means that he'll inherit a seaside hotel in Portugal that each sister believes is rightly hers. The sisters scheme to disrupt the marriage, unaware that it may already be collapsing. The characters of Zus & Zo are not the most likable lot, but that's the movie's strength; it looks unblinkingly, but with forgiveness and humor, at some very difficult personalities. The wealth of dysfunction on display ensures that you'll identify with someone. --Bret Fetzer
