Lucid Lies – A Psychological Thriller

When what you see is not what it seems...


After spending the pandemic in her hometown, Shruti decides to move to Bangalore with a childhood friend to start anew. Not only does her new company await her, but so do some uninvited guests in her dreams. A name haunts her in her dreams, though it does not belong to her.

One day, the lines between her dreams and reality blur when a stranger calls her by the same name.

Is it because of stress or some repressed trauma?

Lucid Lies is an atmospheric Indian psychological fantasy thriller about a young woman who finds herself caught up in a mystery involving elements of dream logic and low-key supernaturalism.
