Based on H. P. Lovecraft's weird tale of the same name, "The Outsider" is the story of how a desperate loner, who has grown up with a butterfly and the Bible for company, one day seizes his chance and makes good his escape, only to face his worst fears head-on at an all-nighter in the company of strangers.

The universe does not care. The abyss is stupid. Narrated by author Bracken MacLeod, this Herzog-inspired fever dream uses 100% stock footage to reflect on the banality of existence.
