In a land where skin colour can determine one's destiny, fraternal twins PULLAMMA and LATA are about to embark on a journey that will tear their lives apart.
Dark skinned Pullamma dreams of being a wife.
With three girls in her family, the sixteen year old is aware there isn't enough dowry to secure suitable husbands for them all.
But a girl can hope.
She's well versed in cooking, pickle making, cow washing -- you name it.
She's also obliged her old-fashioned grandmother by not doing well in school.
Fair skinned and pretty, her twin sister Lata would rather study medicine than get married.
Unable to grasp the depth of Lata's desire, the twins' Grandmother formalizes a wedding alliance for the girl.
Distraught, Lata rebels, with devastating consequences.
As Pullamma helps ready the house for her older sister Malli's bride viewing, she prays for a positive outcome to the event.
What happens next is so inconceivable that it will shape Pullamma's future in ways she couldn't have foreseen.
TELL A THOUSAND LIES is a sometimes wry, sometimes sad, but ultimately realistic look at how superstition and the colour of a girl's skin rules India's hinterlands.
