Mojtaba, Hamzeh, Zar are among other individuals who have been thrown into prison and ideologically interrogated in Iran. In this documentary, the director wants them to interrogate him as agents of the Islamic Republic might. He would like the real torturer in Iran to see himself through the film as if in a mirror. The violent experience of putting themselves in the torturer's head confronts them with their own limits and the ambivalence of the project itself.

In 2018, at a French university, ten individuals filed complaints against their former theater professor, accusing him of sexual violence. This marked the beginning of a long legal journey. Among the plaintiffs, a group of friends accepted the filmmaker's proposal to come together and collaboratively write a theater piece. The creative process intertwines with the various stages of the legal proceedings. By establishing a dialogue between lived experiences and imagination, Les Menteuses embodies an attempt at reconstruction.
