How well do we really know the people around us, even the most beloved ones? What leads a person with Munchausen Syndrome to often do unimaginable things? Would it be a deep sense of isolation and disconnection with their peers? Or would it be mere compulsion to deceit triggered by a mental illness?

Driven by these questions, I tried to unravel this psychological universe little known by the general public, although socially relevant, trying to fit the pieces of a complex behavioral puzzle through the lens of the characters surrounding the protagonist Martha Michaels.

In this brief character study, I counted with the invaluable creative collaboration of the actors. They line up the story in interviews taped and edited just like in a documentary.
