Synopsis
It is a film about lying, about mythomania, narcissism, credulity. It is a film about family and social pressure, a film about loneliness. A film about a man, Jean-Claude Romand, who had been the perfect symbol of a discrete success. It is a film about Jean-Claude Romand who, for he could not say his whole life was a lie, killed his wife, his children and his parents. He had raised lying to the status of a way of life. Yet, at the beginning, his lies were just the same as everyone else's.
