Stranger Eyes Movie Trailer HD - Plot synopsis:
After enduring months of a fruitless police investigation into the disappearance of their daughter, a young, estranged couple, Junyang and Peiying, realize they are bring filmed surreptitiously when they begin receiving mysterious packages at their door containing DVDs with footage of their daily lives. The moments captured are unnerving not only for the violation of their privacy, but for what is exposed about Junyang and Peiying’s relationship on a most intimate level. Suspecting their voyeur is responsible for taking their daughter, the couple embark on a desperate mission to seek him out, only to find the truth of his identity is more complicated than it seems.

Featuring legendary Taiwanese actor Lee Kang-sheng, STRANGER EYES “transmogrifies what looks at first like a creepy crime thriller into something much more tricksy, potent and ultimately puzzling, yet still rooted in recognizable human fragility,” (The Hollywood Reporter). Referencing other surveillance thrillers like Michael Haneke’s CACHE and Alfred Hitchcock’s REAR WINDOW, Singaporean filmmaker Yeo Siew Hua’s latest feature is a timely update to the genre as a meditation on voyeurism in the digital age and the contradictory desires around being seen.
