How The Effects of Lying 'transcends race'
The Effects of Lying is a remarkable film, not least because it was made on a microbudget in only 12 days. And despite a cast of high-profile, mostly British Asian, actors, there’s not a curry in sight.
Its writer, director and actors were keen to point out, following a screening at Birmingham Indian Film Festival – an event held in partnership with RTS Midlands – that the script transcends ethnicity.
The Effects of Lying, currently streaming on ITVX, is a comedy about a dysfunctional family who could be from anywhere.
