★★★★★ “lustrously beautiful and superbly realised modern take on the Camus classic” – Guardian

Set in 1930s Algiers, The Stranger follows Meursault, a detached and quietly enigmatic man drifting through life with emotional indifference. After attending his mother’s funeral without grief, he resumes his routine, beginning a casual relationship and becoming entangled in a neighbour’s questionable affairs. When a sudden act of violence alters everything, Meursault’s refusal to conform to society’s expectations places him under intense scrutiny. François Ozon’s striking black and white adaptation of The Stranger reinterprets its existential themes while exposing the tensions and contradictions of French colonial rule with clarity and restraint.
