Liars

Marius, a successful but unhappy husband, and his brother Jovitas, a feckless failure scorned by his wife Nomeda, who just so happens to be Marius’s longtime mistress—plan to confess Nomeda’s pregnancy by Marius at Christmas dinner. Their scheme unravels when their father Kazimieras shocks everyone by announcing his own divorce after fifty years, fearing his wife Alma has been unfaithful.

Directed by Marius Kunigenas, Liars leans on a strong ensemble — Dainius Kazlauskas, Edita Užaitė, Giedrius Savickas — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 2018.
