After their two-year-old daughter mysteriously disappears, Darren and Tara find themselves trapped in a nightmare: they begin receiving disturbing videos of their own private lives. As the police prepare to arrest a suspect, the family starts to unravel. In a world where no one seems beyond surveillance, painful secrets come to light, and it becomes clear that Darren and Tara are being watched from all sides.

Stranger Eyes is the latest film by Singaporean director and writer Yeo Siew Hua (A Land Imagined, In The House of Straw). In this gripping thriller, he explores themes of control, privacy, and distrust—ranging from the unrelenting gaze of surveillance cameras to the images we ourselves capture, share, and receive on our phones. A chilling tale about watching and being watched.
