Just one YouTube click and a Facebook message changed the lives of long lost twins, Anaïs Bordier and Samantha Futerman. The documentary "Twinsters" will make its Freeform premiere when it airs on SATURDAY, MAY 7 (8:30 - 10:45 p.m. EDT).

"Twinsters" is a two-hour documentary about two young women who were both adopted from South Korea and raised on different continents. Anaïs Bordier is a French fashion student living in London, and Samantha Futerman is an American actor living in Los Angeles. One day, Anaïs ran across a YouTube video and discovered Samantha, who shared her resemblance. Separated by 5,000 miles, Anaïs decided to send a Facebook message to Samantha after finding out they were born on the same day in Korea and both put up for adoption. Follow along their journey as they meet on Skype for the first time and return to their birthplace to get confirmation. The documentary was directed by Samantha Futerman and Ryan Miyamoto.
