THE STRANGER
Netflix
There are a number of sayings that reference that essentially the world is a small place and that we are more connected that not. This belief rings true throughout Netflix's The Stranger. We are introduced to a number of families within a community that seems to be an average place that one would grow up. Many of the people are pillars in their community, involved in their children's lives and have close relationships.
A stranger begins to interject herself into their lives by sharing secrets or opening the door to areas that they should look for in their lives. This knowledge which is meant to create awareness ends up uncovering lies, murders and suspicion among this community. Throughout the season as more secrets are unlocked, we find that The Stranger herself has a vested interest in their lives.
Everyone must decide how far they will go to get to the truth and how they will protect their families when the information is known. The blurred lines on behavior even extends itself to the police department as they become involved only to find that they are not left unscathed. We don't know if there will be another season, but we can't wait to see how The Stranger will continue in this community.
