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 suburban town where he grew up, and the childhood home where his parents (Claire Foy and Jamie Bell), appear to be living, just as they were on the day they died, 30 years before.
All Of Us Strangers is a mysterious, absorbing, slightly surreal film about love, in all its complexity, beauty and sadness. – Stephen Romei, The Australian
Many other writer-directors would have presented it as a tale of the supernatural. Here, though, it is earthly in the best sense: a love story of multiple kinds, marbled with loss. – Danny Leigh, Financial Times
