Synopsis
The Stranger (2022) — watch online on iFILM, an Australian crime thriller directed by Thomas M. Wright, with Joel Edgerton and Sean Harris in a film produced with Screen Australia and Netflix.
Two men connect on the road. Henry Teague is worn down, grateful for any escape. His new contact offers work and easy companionship. Neither is who he says he is. Somewhere offscreen, the largest covert police operation in Australian history is quietly closing in.
The film is built around the real-world case of Daniel Morcombe, a child murder investigation that ran for over a decade. Wright builds the whole thing out of conversation — no action sequences, no score doing the heavy lifting, just two men in close quarters and the specific horror of watching someone become trusted. It's one of the tensest Australian films in years. Stream The Stranger online on iFILM.
