Would I Lie to You?

• Comedy

A darkly comedic exploration of identity and assimilation, *Would I Lie to You?* follows Eddie, a disaffected drifter, whose life is unexpectedly upended when a case of mistaken identity lands him a position within a tightly-knit Jewish family’s fashion business. The film isn't a simple story of deception, but a subtly uncomfortable and often hilarious dissection of cultural appropriation, outsider status, and the surprisingly porous boundaries of belonging. Eddie’s reluctant immersion into this unfamiliar world sparks a quiet transformation, not through grand pronouncements, but through the everyday rhythms of family life and the awkwardness of pretending to be someone he’s not. The film’s humor arises from the escalating absurdity of the situation and the genuine warmth that develops despite the inherent dishonesty, creating a uniquely poignant and unsettling viewing experience.
