The Twinning Reaction
Burack knew something was missing in his life, he “just [didn’t] know what it was… You can’t touch it. You can’t feel it. Something was there.” ABC News consultant and filmmaker behind the documentary The Twinning Reaction, Lori Shinseki, helped Burack and others who were split up at birth to get answers about their identical siblings.

The “twinning reaction” is a term she uses to express the special connection twins have by spending so much time together, beginning at conception. Shinseki explained that twins are together in the womb, the crib, touching and holding each other, and interacting from a very young age. The popular Netflix documentary Three Identical Strangers was a similar, albeit fascinating story, but Shineski’s film tells the shocking story of other multiples who were separated at birth, adopted by different families, without the agency ever telling them about their siblings.
