Stranger

Ju Wai Ren

USA, China, Netherlands, Norway, France 2024 Fiction cor 113 min.

The hotel room as a place where everyone is a stranger. A place that is yours for just a moment. A temporarily intimate space entered by a maid in order to clean it while, if possible, not leaving a trace of her visit. Each episode of “Stranger” is set in such a place. Weaving together a series of episodic stories —some humorous and absurd, some poignant and mysterious— that all unfold within a seemingly confined space, the film sheds light on the distinctive yet universal experiences of isolation and loneliness.

Winner of the best film prize in the Proxima Competition at the Karlovy Vary International Film Festival.
