Synopsis
A small community is shaken by an alleged sexual assault of a teenage boy, committed by two of his classmates. When successful real estate agent Anne Sofie discovers that her son is more deeply involved than she initially believed, she is determined to protect him, whatever the cost. This puts her on a direct collision course with her longtime friend Sara and another mother, Ulrikke, in a struggle where all three women fight to save themselves and their sons.
"What Lies Between Us" is an intense story about the price of ambition, the power of lies, and how far we are willing to go for our children.
