Synopsis by Eleanor Mannikka

An uneven first film from director Issam B. Makdissy, written by his wife Terry Eubanks-Makdissy, Liar's Dice also stars the couple as two sides of a three-cornered relationship. Anne (Eubanks-Makdissy) works as a waitress to support herself, but her real passion in life is painting (as it is for Eubanks-Makdissy). The aspiring artist finds herself caught between the attentions of two different men: Joe (Robert Ede), a lonely older man aware of his entrenched isolation, and Samir (Makdissy), a married foreign student just as lonely as Anne or Joe. Since no one really wants a threesome, someone, somewhere is going to have to give.
