how to pass arguments between pythons scripts?
#2
I certainly hope it always prints 'Var: Hello world' since setting Var = 'Hello world' is the last thing you do before printing Var.

This has nothing to do with functions being in different modules.  It is just a logic error that you have to fix.  This code exhibits the same behavior and the function and function call are in the same module.
def set_string_func(string):
    print('Received', string)
    string = 'yellow'  ## Why doing this if passed string?
    print('Returning', string)  ## string is always 'yellow' after assignment
    return string

string = set_string_func('mellow')
The output is:
Quote:Received mellow
Returning yellow
