NOT ALL’S FAIR IN FAMILY AND FUNERALS

When an estranged family gathers to mourn the passing of Mavis, the family matriarch, the funeral erupts into more of a dysfunctional family reunion than any of them could predict. Secrets unravel, long-buried truths emerge, a family curse keeps siblings apart, and—surprise!—it turns out grandma has exaggerated her demise. In a desperate attempt to bring everyone together, Mavis has hatched a plan to fake her death and break the curse. If everyone can keep it together, they might just make it out alive.

A new Canadian comedy that turns grief into a hilarious journey of unexpected revelations and side-splitting confessions. Liars at a Funeral is a raucous farce bursting with eccentric characters, witty banter, hidden identities, and irreverent, dark humour that will make you laugh at life, death, and family.
