In 1930s Algeria, apathetic Frenchman Meursault showed total indifference to life. His emotional detachment leads to a murder, followed by a trial that scrutinizes both the crime and his character. 

“In this case, stunningly high-contrast black-and-white images (lensed by Belgian cinematographer Manu Dacosse, Evolution) that convey the author’s eye for immersive detail, plunging us into a Mediterranean world of sea, sex and sun that’s enchanting until it becomes unbearable, like an open-air prison that eventually turns into a real one.” – The Hollywood Reporter
