The Blue Villa is a seedy bordello on a Mediterranean island where the villages are frightened by the ghost-like return of a young man, who mysteriously disappeared after the killing of a young Eurasian woman.
A sailor who was accused of killing a teenage girl and who was presumed to have drowned while making his escape, return to the Mediterranean island where the alleged crime took place. But all is not what it appear. Robbe-Grillet keeps us guessing as to whether the murder actually took place and teases the viewer with the possibility that the sailor may be a restless spirit or a figment of the imagination conjured up by the victim's father to assuage his own guilt. Too many question and not enough anwer make for a very frustrating investigation.
