In China, local companies hire white (but not necessarily qualified) Americans to lend them credibility. Cons such as these, known as face jobs , are instances in which Chinese companies hire foreigners to pose as professionals to lend credibility during meetings, press conferences, and other events where face is paramount. When veteran face-jobber Stanley hires a new assistant who thinks Stanley is his long-lost father, Stanley attempts to pull off the con of a lifetime by pretending to be his assistant’s dad. A darkly humorous critique of the post-truth world that explores questions of race, systemic fraud and personal greed, White Faced Lies is ultimately about how easily lies become truth.
