This film takes a story I've seen before and turns it on it's head. I love how Lie Exposed takes themes often considered taboo and brings them into the open for all of the characters to grapple with. The film itself looks beautiful and at times feels like a love letter to the city of Toronto. Highly recommend!
Highly recommend watching this film. It analyzes relationships in a refreshing and thoughtful way and offers different perspectives of situations you don't often see films covering. Great to see so many wonderful Canadian faces too!
Echoing what cleovaillancourt said below - I thought this was beautifully done. Loved the elements of Toronto, and found Leslie Hope and Bruce Greenwood to be a wonderful pair. This film was raw, artistic, emotional, a bit edgy, and all around one I would recommend watching.
Also, the photos shown throughout the film are such an interesting style!

Leslie Hope spectacular, brave, funny and gripping in this role-- she doesn't put a foot wrong. The direction was gorgeous, worth the price of admission alone; managing to be sensitive and boldly confident at the same time. The supporting cast as well, are all spot on. The writing is provocative, sad, humorous, strange--never predictable. A unique and lovely film.
I find myself returning to this film in my head many months after the initial viewing. With consistently subtle and nuanced performances from the entire cast, this exploration of one woman's unusual set of reactions to her own diagnosis and what they provoke in those closest to her is delivered beautifully. Completely unpredictable, with a lovely, unhurried pace.
