Film Review

Film: Lögner (Lies)
Director: Jonas Odell
Writer: Jonas Odell (Screenplay)
Release date: 22nd October 2009 (UK)
Genre: Documentary, Animation, Short.

Lies is a mysterious short film documenting the adventure and tactics of conmen. This unique film has a mixture of live action and animation; with an exclusive technique of adding subtitle instead of the character's speech.
This film follows the journey of a conman who went into a company and posed as someone called, Accountant, since he was trapped by the security guards and couldn't find a suitable name to call himself. This man was able to make himself money, with the help of another conman. They went into banks and got out more money, but one of the men wasn't yet satisfied. He sent the other conman to collect more checks, but there was a mistake when he left his identity and they were captured.
An inspiring thing about this film is that it contains a moral. It shows the nature of lying and the consequences for your actions.
