In the powerfully emotional drama LIE WITH ME, successful novelist Stéphane Belcourt (Guillaume de Tonquédec) returns to his hometown for the first time in decades as an ambassador for a famous cognac distillery. Once there, he is stunned to discover that one of the company's executives is Lucas (Victor Belmondo), the son of his first love Thomas.

This triggers for Stéphane vivid memories of his passionate but secret adolescent affair with Thomas, at a time when homosexuality was kept in the shadows. As Stéphane confronts the painful ghosts of the past, Lucas also begins to understand his father's truth in Olivier Peyon's moving and superbly acted adaptation of Philippe Besson's acclaimed novel.
