Abstract: | Layla is a single mother living with her son in Johannesburg. After training as a polygraph operator she manages to secure a job with a company specialising in lie detectors and security. On her way to her new workplace she is involved in a hit-and-run accident. The victim is a white male, she is a black woman. Paralyzed with guilt, Layla becomes entangled in a web of lies and deceit. A psychological thriller that shows the paranoia that is part of living in South Africa. [Abstract reproduced from DVD-video] |
