Strangers is a reflective film that explores memory and the lingering echoes of our last happy moments memories that continue to follow us long after they have passed. The film delves into unfinished dreams and the emotional weight they carry, while observing the current state of the world and the growing difficulty of human connection compared to the past, when interaction felt simpler and more genuine. Through the protagonist’s memories, we witness a time when dreams were modest and people felt familiar. As he comes to understand the reality of the world around him, he finds himself transformed no longer belonging, but becoming a stranger.
