Ryan Seslow on Raffi Asdourian: StrangerStranger is slow moving through the eyes of its main character, He just lost his Mother. His demenour evokes uncertainties with in us. It creeps up on us, and follows us. I find that stranger deals with several kinds of intimacy.
The awkward ones that we never really get used to. Death, getting old, dealing with a cheating partner, physically being attacked, and violence. They evoke a loneliness that these experiences contain.
These are dark emotions, uncertain ones that propel our ego as it perpetuates negative vibrations. The film brings us to the tipping point, the point of no return where the soul transcends the ego to expresses itself. A life is lost and yet there is a rebirth of some kind. Was it a dream, or was it all real?
