Director Mitu Misra who lives in Bradford says, “Lies We Tell is, on the surface, about a man forced to confront an underworld that he has stumbled into – but I can tell you now it is also about a strata of British society, that lives by its own laws, that really exists. Donald’s story is something I have experienced – an experience I wanted to portray the only way I knew how – through film.”

Lies We Tell is an unflinching British thriller about loyalty, betrayal, and revenge. The film revolves around a trusted driver, who must deal with his dead boss’s Muslim mistress, her dark past pulling him into a life-and-death showdown with her notorious gangster cousin/ex-husband.

Lies We Tell stars Gabriel Byrne, Sibylla Deen, Mark Addy, Jan Uddin, Emily Atack and Harvey Keitel and will have an international release on 2nd February, 2018.
