Between Strangers explores the delicate line between connection and isolation in modern urbanity. The story is told in voice over by our documentary subject, David, who makes the same 125 mile commute to and from New York City everyday. On the train, everyday for 15 years, he sees the same man, the man in the cowboy boots ...but they have never spoken.
After a chance encounter on the DC metro, Ryan and Julisa spend the next twenty-four hours discussing their hopes, dreams, and fears. Slowly but surely, they reveal more and more about themselves, and fall in love.
Structured as a labyrinth-like game and inspired by Jorge Luis Borges, Aleph is a travelogue of experience, a dreamer's journey through the lives, experiences, stories and musings of protagonists spanning ten countries and five continents.
