Baseado no romance homônimo de Albert Camus, a ação desenrola-se na Argélia na época em que ainda era colônia francesa, país onde Camus viveu grande parte da sua vida. É a história de Meursault, um homem que vive uma vida, que talvez não devesse ser contada. Pois ele vive vazio de emoções, incapaz de sentir amor, saudade, ódio, medo, ou qualquer outra emoção. A sua vida vai se desenrolando como se ele fosse um estrangeiro, não em relação a um país, mas em relação à humanidade. No fim, o crime que comete não o leva ao fim da sua vida, o que leva ao seu fim é a falta de qualquer emoção aquando da morte da sua mãe. Mostrando-nos Camus que tudo o que fazemos num determinado momento se reflete durante o resto de nossa vida.
