Written on September 18, 2025
Family of Strangers is a powerful drama that sensitively explores life within a psychiatric hospital, offering a rare and thought-provoking perspective on mental illness. While its pacing is slow and contemplative, the emotional depth, strong acting, and beautiful cinematography make the experience immersive and moving. The film effectively conveys that behind every struggle lies a hidden story, urging us to replace judgment with empathy—especially toward those closest to us.
