About this work

Description

A documentary portrait of Ronnie and Donnie Galyon, the world's oldest conjoined twins. They were not expected to survive infancy let alone make it to 57-years-old. They are joined from the base of the sternum and although all their upper vital organs are separate, they share the same colon, bladder, penis and rectum. They long to travel to Dallas to see their favourite football team before their health deteriorates too far for it to be considered; Ronnie has scoliosis and arthritis. The programme follows them as they make their trip to see the Dallas Cowboys play.
