Jason returns from war to literary glory after writing an international best-seller, but his celebrity is underscored by his marriage to Madeeha, an Iraqi woman he saved. When he reunites with old friends, Amir and Lynn, questions emerge about the veracity of the book and its particular patriotic American gaze. Lust, jealousy and personal politics bring things between old friends to a boiling point and we are asked "what is the expense of lies—personally and as a country?" Presented by Urban Stages.
