Beschreibung
"A stream of visually arresting and magical stage pictures that make most conventional theatrical imagery look half dead." (Independent)

Summer, Quebec City. Following the brutal murder of a young woman, police suspicion rests on one of her close friends, Francois, a student of political science. Meanwhile, a coroner conducts the gruelling autopsy. Based on an uncanny series of interwoven true stories, Polygraph is a play noir: part metaphysical thriller, part murder mystery and part love story, played out in a riveting series of overlapping and shifting perspectives.
