Perfect Strangers (Italian: Perfetti sconosciuti) is a 2016 Italian comedy-drama film directed by Paolo Genovese.
It was released in Italy on February 11, 2016.
The film was a critical and commercial success, winning the David di Donatello in the Best Film Category and grossing more than €16 million in Italy.
Seven long-time friends (three married couples and a divorcee) are having a dinner. They decide, as a playful game, to put each one's mobile phone on the table and reveal every text message or phone call they would receive that evening, to prove that nobody has anything to hide. Hilarity and drama ensue together as everyone's secrets are unveiled and the seven friends find themselves perfect strangers to each other.
The film was number-one on its opening week in Italy, with US$3.7 million.
