All of Us Strangers
15
One night in his near-empty tower block in contemporary London, Adam (Andrew Scott) has a chance encounter with a mysterious neighbour Harry (Paul Mescal), which punctures the rhythm of his everyday life. As a relationship develops between them, Adam is preoccupied with memories of the past and finds himself drawn back to the childhood home where he grew up.
From acclaimed British filmmaker Andrew Haigh comes one of the most impressive films of recent years – an incredibly moving tale exploring themes of love, loss and queer loneliness – with an outstanding Andrew Scott giving a career best performance.
All of Us Strangers contains several sequences with flashing lights that may affect those who are susceptible to photosensitive epilepsy or have other photosensitivities.

“Haigh is a tremendously lyrical filmmaker, and All of Us Strangers unfolds in a space that seems like a dream, or a hallucination, pulsing with the rippling soul rush of love turning a life from monochrome to full color.”
The New York Times
“The film is an enormously satisfying and affecting experience.”
The Guardian
“All of Us Strangers is a miraculously uncheesy study of loneliness, forgiveness and, above all, the power of love.”
