Strangers 

Synopsis: 

STRANGERS is about one young woman, Isobel Song (Zoë Chao), and her experience renting out the spare room in her house via Airbnb. In the throes of a messy and painful breakup, resulting from Isobel cheating on her long-term boyfriend with a woman, she can no longer afford rent and decides to become a host on Airbnb to generate extra income. With the help of her androgynous lesbian best friend Cam (Meredith Hagner), she navigates the most emotionally complicated time of her life, in terms of both her sexual and professional identities, all the while dealing with a revolving door of new guests in her home. This is a series about the intricacies of human connection, about the messiness and chaos of modern life, love, and womanhood, and what happens when strangers come together and share the most intimate of places: the home. Strangers is about the families we don’t always get to choose— as well as the ones we do— and the beautifully serendipitous moments between strangers in a city where anything feels possible.
