For We Are Strangers reveals the consciousness of a prison counsellor, Xuan, who slowly succumbs to the trauma of her past after being assigned to the same man who assaulted her. The inmate is due to be released for a minor felony but fails to recognise her. Xuan's subsequent actions blur the line between victim and assailant, altering the viewer's perception of morality and retribution.
