The Outcast. When the Truth is Scarier than Death

Jean-Claude Roman lives with his wife and two children in a cozy house in a quiet, prosperous town in eastern France. Every morning he drives the children to school and then heads to work in Geneva along a picturesque road. Roman is a renowned doctor working on a cancer cure at the World Health Organization. In Paris, where he often flies for work, he is greeted by a beautiful mistress. His parents, whom he does not forget to visit, are proud of him, and friends and neighbors respect him and even envy him a little. Nobody knows that his entire life is a pyramid of virtuoso lies, and for 18 years he has lived in eternal fear of exposure… "The Outcast" is a mesmerizing tale of brutal murders, incomprehensible deception, and desperate logic, according to which it is easier to die than to tell loved ones the truth.
