Written and directed by Yeo Siew Hua, Stranger Eyes has a similar setup to Michael Haneke's Cache (aka Hidden), with a married couple receiving mysterious DVDs featuring footage of their intimate day to day lives. The twist here is that the couple's daughter disappeared months earlier, and they suspect whoever is behind the DVDs is the same person who took their child.
The film stars Lee Kang-sheng, Wu Chien-ho, Anicca Panna, Vera Chen and Xenia Tan.
Stranger Eyes is in US cinemas from August 29th. A UK/ROI release has yet to be announced.
Check out the trailer and poster below.
The official synopsis reads:
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.
