The intriguing thing about our dreams is we're always the "Star". Comedy, romance, murder mystery, drama, documentary of a heroine - there we are in the middle of everything. When we're awake we also star in our dreams. Dream big and work toward your goals and you'll write a story with your life that will cause satisfaction beyond what would occur if you were a television or screen celebrity who plays roles about fictional people's lives. Whether the story is a tragedy or a cherished classic depends on who we want to become and if we pursue our dreams.

"Sorelle" è una galleria di ritratti femminili: dalla matriarca contadina che gestisce l'azienda famigliare, all'anonima segretaria d'ufficio che preferisce evadere dalla monotonia quotidiana immergendosi nei film, dall'anziana sarta, felice nel suo ospizio, alla custode di condominio che sgobba da mane a sera.
