François Ozon returns with a career-best work, an exquisite adaptation of Albert Camus’s classic existential novel.

Set in 1938 Algiers, Meursault (Voisin) is a quiet and unassuming man in his early 30s. Upon finding out his mother has passed, he finds himself indifferent to his relationships and interactions. Both socially and romantically, Meursault allows himself to be guided by whatever is happening around him in the moment. One hot summer’s day, when this impassiveness leads to a tragic event, we learn that nothing will sway Meursault from his philosophical point of view.
