The Symmetry of Lies | Two Stories. Two Masks. One Trap.
In some stories, lying is not a fault: it is architecture.
A couple. Two stories. A truth that eludes us.
Synopsis
Julien tells their story as if reconstructing a plan: with angles, evidence, logic.
Chloé tells it differently: with what we feel when words change meaning, when everyday life becomes a blur, when we no longer know if we love… or if we obey.
In this closed-door dialogue between two voices, the relationship develops quickly, too quickly, then cracks with micro-shifts: a twisted phrase, a disputed memory, a heavy silence. Little by little, a haunting question arises: who holds the truth—and who fabricates it?
“The Symmetry of Lies” is a psychological thriller about control: tense, addictive, and deeply disturbing, where every detail counts… and can lie.
“The Symmetry of Lies” is an intense psychological thriller, a closed-door drama told from two perspectives, in which we slip, page after page, into the mechanisms of control.
