From their early days filming backyard wrestling matches in Australia when they were just 11 years old… to their wildly successful “RackaRacka” Youtube channel which put them on the map… to the horror films they grew up drawing inspiration from and the hurdles they faced getting their directorial feature TALK TO ME off the ground… to the lessons they learned in working with a full crew for the first time… to the runaway success of TALK TO ME which grossed over 90 million worldwide and became A24’s highest grossing film… to their brief attachment to STREET FIGHTER and their decision to prioritize making their own original material… to the making of BRING HER BACK and why working with a cat may have been their biggest on set challenge yet, the Philippou twins are two of the most energetic and exciting voices working today!
