We Strangers

Anna returns to her hometown after a decade of silence. Her meeting with former lover Maxim is not a sentimental reunion, but a cold calculation. She hasn't brought a suitcase of memories, but legal documents concerning the inheritance of their mutual friend, who died under mysterious circumstances. Every dialogue in a hotel room or at a café table is a duel, where the past is wielded as a weapon, and innocent questions mask accusations. It gradually becomes clear that neither Anna nor Maxim are who they appear to be, and the tragedy that drove them apart may not have been an accident. The town, frozen in time, becomes a witness to their game, where the stakes are a truth both would prefer to bury.
