What is Three Identical Strangers on Netflix about?
Three Identical Strangers is about a set of American male triplets who were separated at birth. David Kellman, Eddy Galland, and Bobby Shafran were given up for adoption by their teenage birth mother and were then separated for a psychological experiment.
Each boy went to a different family from a varying background and the families were never told their son had two brothers.
When Bobby attended his first day of college he was greeted by everyone as Eddy. By pure coincidence they had both gone to the same university and eventually met up.
They were featured in a newspaper article and that’s when they discovered they had a third brother, after David’s mum saw their picture and realised her son looked exactly the same.
The triplets became great friends and the documentary follows what happened to them after they met, including how they became media sensations and a detailed look into the experiment run by Dr. Peter Neubauer who separated many twins and triplets for a nature vs nurture study. The results of the study have never been published.
