Adapting Albert Camus’ classic existentialist novel, François Ozon delivers a coolly enigmatic portrait of disaffection amid the tensions of 1930s French-colonised Algeria.
Algiers, 1938. An unassuming man in his early thirties, Meursault (Benjamin Voisin) attends his mother’s funeral, at which he does not cry. The next day, he tries to resume normal life. But after a seemingly inexplicable act of violence, his moral standing is brought into question. Shot in sculptural black-and-white, The Stranger shines a contemporary lens on Camus’ tale of alienation and mystery, capturing a charged society on the boil.
