SYNOPSIS

As a mother grapples with teaching her son a lesson about lying, she contends with a world full of adult perjurers and contradictions. Where honesty ends and lies begin is a boundary determined within us all. How far are we willing to go to tell the truth and protect those who do? Does the wolf represent the unseen danger of deception or is its howl a clarion call for truth?
