Where Is The Lie? is a vibrant bubblegum-colored dramedy about transphobia and social media

There’s so much to like about ‘Where is the Lie?’ that it becomes an enjoyable, if at times tonally uneven, cautionary tale about the dangers of whirlwind relationships, especially in today’s technology-driven world.

Rated: B+

Marupok AF (Where is the Lie?) thrives on standout performances and a sweeping creative force, but is hampered by its dangerous handling of a villainous character.

I may be totally wrong about this one because I only lasted 20 minutes. Feeling guilty I tried another 7. So there's a chance that the next 58 minutes are scintillating, “But why,” I ask, “are so many trans folks depicted on screen as shallow twits?”
