Director of Local Entertainment Channels Shirley Adonisi also shared with Briefly News:

"This series focuses on the mystical and unshakable bond between twins and the lengths they will go to, to protect each other’s legacy against any negative forces at play. It’s a powerful blend of culture, family and the unseen forces that bind twins together!"
