D'après un roman de Claude Jasmin (Prix du Cercle du livre de France). «La fuite d'un assassin qui vient de tuer sa femme fournit un sujet simple et violent que Patry charge de nombreuses implications métaphysiques, sociologiques et psychanalytiques. [...] Une atmosphère fascinante parvient à se dégager du film qui réussit d'autre part à visualiser assez justement un certain sens de la révolte.»
