Franck, a fit gay man, seeks love at a lakeside gay cruising beach. Among the mostly pudgy nude sunbathers, he befriends Henri, a depressed middle-aged bi-sexual who enjoys the quiet but accepts Franck's company. When Michel appears, Franck finally spots a man he'd like to know sexually. Unfortunately, he also spots him drowning his gay lover but opts not to tell anyone in order to consider having a relationship with this handsome yet remorseless killer.

Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
A stunning minimalist erotic thriller that explores with arresting photography and economical use of dialogue how human identity is defined, and sometimes imprisoned, by our desires, drives, and passions.
– Tirdad Derakhshani,
Philadelphia Inquirer,
14 Mar 2014
fresh:
Carefully and often brilliantly creates its own Eden-like universe.
– John Hartl,
Seattle Times,
6 Mar 2014
fresh:
There's too much metaphysical packaging material in the story; it's half Styrofoam peanuts. But its ideas are intriguing and its murky suspense is undeniable.
– Colin Covert,
Minneapolis Star Tribune,
6 Mar 2014
fresh:
What sets the engrossing "Stranger by the Lake" apart is that its excesses seem to point to a moral purpose beyond shock or entertainment value.
– Stephanie Merry,
Washington Post,
6 Mar 2014
fresh:
A simple and ruthlessly effective exercise in minimal narrative and style, Alain Guiraudie's moral tale is so restrained and atmospheric that the nudity and graphic sex don't upstage the creepy mood of seductive, inescapable doom.
– Peter Keough,
Boston Globe,
