Someone I Used to Know is a heartfelt 2013 drama that follows the story of a young man named Dave (West Liang), who moves back to his hometown in California after a failed attempt at pursuing his dreams in New York City. Upon returning home, Dave reunites with his childhood best friends, Eric (Brian Yang) and Tim (Eddie Mui), but soon realizes that their lives have all taken different paths since they last saw each other.

Eric is now a successful lawyer with a wife and children, while Tim is struggling to make ends meet as a bartender and dealing with personal issues of his own. Dave, on the other hand, is lost and directionless, still haunted by the mistakes he made in the past and unsure of where to go from here.

As Dave tries to find his place in this new reality, he also tries to mend the bonds of friendship with Eric and Tim, who have their own share of secrets and resentments. The trio's dynamic is further complicated by the arrival of Laura (Julia Nickson), a former flame of Dave's who has returned to the town after years of living abroad.

In the midst of all these changes and uncertainties, Dave is forced to confront his past, his present, and his hopes for the future. He discovers that sometimes the only way to move forward is to let go of the past and embrace the people and experiences that shaped us into who we are.

Through its poignant exploration of friendship, love, and regret, Someone I Used to Know offers a timeless message of healing and redemption that will resonate with audiences of all ages. The film boasts an impressive cast, including West Liang, Brian Yang, and Eddie Mui, who deliver nuanced and authentic performances that capture the complexities of their characters.
