What Den Menschen so fern is
You're a schoolteacher in colonial Algeria, escorting a prisoner across the Atlas mountains. But loyalties fray as French settlers and Algerian rebels alike try to subvert your mission. Oelhoffen finds new angles in Camus's source story, and the snowy vistas heighten the moral chill.
