Lies We Tell is a a contained psychological thriller about a gaslit girl’s break for freedom. Maud (Agnes O’Casey), an orphaned heiress living alone in an isolated manor, must fight her charming and dangerous Uncle (David Wilmot) for her inheritance — and her life. Lies We Tell also stars Holly Sturton and Chris Walley, is written by Elisabeth Gooch, produced by Ruth Carter of Blue Ink Films with backing from Fís Éireann / Screen Ireland.
Stripped-down, gritty, and all-too-contemporary: this is not a frocks-and-bonnets period picture but a taut, propulsive, fight to the death.
Lies We Tell is in cinemas from 13th October 2023.
