📖 Story

In 1938 Algiers, an indifferent man drifts through existence without feeling, from his mother's funeral to a fleeting romance with a coworker. The Stranger captures the essence of human alienation as emotional detachment transforms into something far darker. A single moment of impulse shatters his hollow routine, dragging him into a spiral where society demands he feel remorse he simply cannot muster. What emerges is a haunting meditation on the cost of remaining untouched by the world around us.
