In the first decades of the 20th century, when life was being transformed by scientific innovations, researchers made a thrilling new claim: they could tell whether someone was lying by using a machine. Popularly known as the “lie detector,” the device transformed police work, seized headlines and was extolled in movies, TV and comics as an infallible crime-fighting tool. Husbands and wives tested each other’s fidelity. Corporations routinely tested employees’ honesty and government workers were tested for loyalty and “morals.” But the promise of the polygraph turned dark, and the lie detector too often became an apparatus of fear and intimidation. Written and directed by Rob Rapley and executive produced by Cameo George, The Lie Detector is a tale of good intentions, twisted morals and unintended consequences.

Eldar, Bakhtiyar, Elnur and Alihuseyn are childhood friends. Eldar is thinking of marrying the girl he loves, Gunay, but he doesn't have the money to have a wedding. While looking for money with his friends, he sees an advertisement for a program called "Lie Detector" with a prize of 10,000 manats and joins the program. As a result of the questions asked throughout the program, Eldar is confronted with his interesting and funny past.
