Story Edited by: Shaun Crawford
On the cessation of covid, 30 year old twin sisters give up their big city dreams to return home and navigate the challenges of starting a new career, living with their parents and reimagining their future.
Call of the Blackbird will be the directorial debut feature film for The Sisters Strain. A true passion project, self funded, produced, written by, directed by and starring Kat & Karissa Strain. Although fiction, the story shares autobiographical details of the twin duos lives as well as including each of their poetic writings. Kat & Karissa are also creating an all original sound track with songs they have written throughout the past decade. They live firmly by the belief that where there is a will, there is always a way and there is nothing they can't accomplish when they pour their hearts into it. If any one has any questions about what kind of artist the pair are, or what kind of films you can expect from them moving forward- they'll have their answer after watching this film!

Kat & Karissa Strain
A pair of twins reunite their band only to break it up bigger than ever!
Inspired by films like: This Is Spinal Tap, Drop Dead Gorgeous and A Mighty Wind, the footage would be a mix of staged interviews to camera along with “fly on the wall” footage of them on tour and their lives during this period. Although the film is primarily a comedy it still has realistic characters with complex relationships and a potentially poignant ending that would resonate with audiences.
