People’s Cinema Club is a weekly film series curated by Philadelphia's independent film community.
This week’s screening:
In gritty Gary, Indiana, quick-witted cleaner Rayelle takes a strange new job that spirals into the surreal when she claims she can speak to the dead. As her lie spins into power, secrets, and chaos, Ray must decide how far she’ll go to hold onto control. We Strangers is a darkly funny, sharp slice-of-life story about identity, power, and the quiet lines that divide us.
Narrative Feature (2024)
