True Lies

Music, shadows, close-ups, loss, aerial surveillance, video cameras, testimonies, confessions and phone calls. Three lives, various photographs, one day, many memories. Three men: one in a hotel room, working out of town; the second an actor preparing for an audition; and the third a photographer who no longer photographs.

True Lies bends the line between fiction and non-fiction until it breaks and then pokes you in the eye with the stubby bit that remains. True Lies is rigorous, anarchic, fast, fearsome theatricality.
