Movie synopsis: Haroun is an old bachelor who has lived in Oran for several years. A retired civil servant, he leads a reclusive life until the day he meets Kamel in a barβa journalist to whom he tells an incredible story dating back to 1942. He claims to be the brother of βthe Arabβ killed in a story told in one of the most famous novels of the 20th century, βThe Strangerβ by Albert Camus. An Arab with an erased name: Moussa. Through anger, assertions, details, and confidences, Haroun finally convinces the journalist to listen to his story. His confession is a cry of freedom and distressβbut above all, a cry of revolt: against an abusive mother, against a country that failed to achieve true independence, against a book, and against a famous French writer.
