The Stranger
Directed by Luchino Visconti
Produced by DDL Cinematografica, Marianne Productions
A bleak existential meditation on alienation and meaninglessness, where a detached man's emotional void culminates in senseless violence and moral indifference.
Meursault is a man who feels utterly isolated from everyone and everything around him. This alienation results in sudden, inexplicable bursts of violence, culminating in murder.
