Silent Lies is a dramatic film about the violence and pain of incest and first love.

Plot

In this earnest, unflinching drama, two sisters unite in the face of their father's constant abuse. The story unfolds in a small Texas town as Shelly (Elizabeth Anne Allen) 's senior year in high school draws to a close. She divides her time between a loving friendship with Raymond (Cedrik Terrell), studying, and caring for her younger sister Tanya (Dana Daurey), who has just blossomed into a beautiful young woman and is eager to explore her burgeoning sexuality. Though they have a stepmother (Bonnie Burroughs), she is cruel and abusive, leaving Shelly to be Tanya's prime source of nurturing. Their father Carl (Michael Harris) is in Mexico hiding out from the cops. Trouble and tragedy ensue when he returns.
