A Little White Lie
The truth is in the fiction.
Directed by Michael Maren
Produced by CaliWood Pictures, Big Fan Films
A lighthearted comedy of mistaken identity that plays with the gap between public persona and private truth through an everyman thrust into an absurd situation.
A handyman living in New York City is mistaken for a famous and famously reclusive writer and brought to a university where he is to deliver a keynote address.
