Buried secrets have a way of coming back to bite people – even if the secrets they're trying to protect are not their own. That's the idea behind Mitu Misra's new thriller, Lies We Tell, which stars Gabriel Byrne and Harvey Keitel. We have an exclusive look at the first trailer for the film, along with its UK quad poster.
When his billionaire boss Demi (Keitel) dies, chauffeur Donald (Byrne) is given one final job - to wipe out any evidence of Demi’s relationship with his mistress, the enigmatic and beautiful Amber (Sibylla Deen). Donald’s task soon unravels when Amber’s life is threatened, and he finds himself her reluctant protector. Unwittingly drawn into a dangerous urban underworld, he encounters dark, harrowing practices, and a sinister underworld figure who will test him to his very limits...
Positioning itself in the tradition of the original Get Carter and Mike Figgis' Stormy Monday, the film is based on a story by Misra, with the script coming from Ewen Glass and Andy McDermott.
With Mark Addy, Gina McKee and Toyah Wilcox also in the film, Lies We Tell will be in UK and US cinemas on 2 February.
