In 2014, BuzzFeed writer Matt Stopera’s phone was stolen from a bar in NYC. A year later, images of a man’s face and an orange tree mysteriously appeared in his iPhoto stream. Matt wrote an article about it that went viral overnight in China, where internet users identified the man as “Brother Orange.” Invited to China, Matt became an instant celebrity, and the media followed his every move, as he and Brother Orange developed a deep friendship that transcended cultural and language barriers. When Brother Orange visited Matt in the United States, Matt felt like he had to open up to his new friend. Years later, after enduring the isolation of the pandemic, Brother Orange recorded a hopeful video message expressing his desire to be reunited with Matt.
