Plot – Perfect Strangers (Italian: Perfetti sconosciuti) is a 2016 Italian comedy-drama film directed by Paolo Genovese. The movie follows seven long-time friends who meet for dinner and decide to share the contents of every text, email and phone call they receive. Everyone places their mobile phones on the table, and like a dangerous Russian roulette, they share whatever arrives (texts, WhatsApp messages and calls). Clearly, this uncommon truth-or-dare game has no point among honest friends who share everything with each other, nevertheless, when the phones start ringing, who will be the one with the sweatiest palms? As secrets are brought to the surface, friendships are tested.
