The Middleburgh Library, 323 Main Street, Middleburgh is proud to present the viewing of The Invention of Lying (PG13). Showtime is 7 pm this Friday.

In a world where people speak the truth and have no concept of deception, a young man about to lose everything invents the ’lie’ and goes on to not just change the nature of movie-making, but also creates the basis of religion. After much effort, he also gets the girl he loves.
