While as a whole 1001 Nunakal (Thousand and One Lies) may look like a The12th Man ripoff, it has a more magnetic atmosphere. There is not one dull scene in the film that sees a bunch of couples get together. After a night passes, they play a game where everyone has to tell their better half a lie that they told them since they got together. As one would expect, things take ugly turn for some of them, ultimately breaking open our own beliefs about what a truth or lie is. 1001 Nunakal is well-directed and it makes you think. That's what some films are for.
