I Was a Stranger is a powerful 2026 drama film that weaves together the lives of several individuals thrown into extraordinary circumstances against the backdrop of war and displacement. The story follows Amira, a Syrian pediatric surgeon forced to flee Aleppo with her young daughter after tragedy strikes, setting off a chain of events that connects five strangers across borders and cultures. As their paths intersect one fateful night in the Mediterranean, a smuggler trying to save his son, a soldier wrestling with his conscience, a poet searching for home, and a Greek coast guard captain caught between duty and mercy all confront harrowing choices where survival is uncertain and humanity is laid bare. The film explores themes of resilience, compassion, and the lengths people go to protect the ones they love.
