In 2018, at a French university, ten individuals filed complaints against their former theater professor, accusing him of sexual violence. This marked the beginning of a long legal journey. Among the plaintiffs, a group of friends accepted the filmmaker's proposal to come together and collaboratively write a theater piece. The creative process intertwines with the various stages of the legal proceedings. By establishing a dialogue between lived experiences and imagination, Les Menteuses embodies an attempt at reconstruction.
