Premise

[edit]

Juliette and Sophie are sisters: Juliette lies out of boredom, while Sophie has problems because of her excessive frankness. When Juliette falls in love with an older man, her past catches up with her: no matter how much she tries to convince him of her genuine feelings, he refuses to believe her. Thus love teaches her how important sincerity is; meanwhile, Sophie learns that a lie can be salutary.
