The Interloper

POWERFUL, COMPELLING, WITH A MIND-BLOWING CONCLUSION! A hilltop village in Southwest France. The view is idyllic, and to an outsider, the lives lived there are too Suffering from mental illness since a child, retired Russian scientist, Karolis Dante Valentin, spends his days crafting puppets under the watchful eye of Dr Yves Chron, who ponders upon his own solitary life. Father Gabriel wants no more than to stay in his beloved church, whilst the mayor, Robert Rousseau, seeks harmony in all things. Clmentine Laffitte spies from her chteau tower, and local farmer, Lavigne, tends his vines, which produce the earthy wine that sustains them all. Together they weave a rich tapestry of life, but things are rarely what they seem The Interloper gives a vivid portrayal of human frailty, the complexity of friendships and relationships, the interconnectedness of all things, and the delicate balance held by love, fate, and an ever-ticking clock.
