The Truth about Liars reveals the only certain thing we know about lying: everyone does it, and we can't easily detect it. Scientists say that by the age of four we have all learned to lie. Most of us fib in one of every four conversations that last more than 10 minutes. One study showed that university students lie to their mothers 50 per cent of the time.

In this provocative documentary, world-class specialists share their findings and theories about the art of the untruth, including: Paul Ekman, author of Why Kids Lie; Jeff Hancock, a Cornell University professor who explores the role deception plays within the internet; Stephen Porter, a specialist in crime and deception as the director of the forensic certificate program at Dalhousie University; and David Livingstone Smith, a philosopher dedicated to analyzing the link between nature and deception. The very unique relationship politicians have with the truth is also examined.
