Catalogue > At random

A man in confrontation with two women, one vulnerable and easily influenced, the other hesitant and questioning. On one hand the man is preching a veracity to the already converted and on the other a mendacity to the doubtful. Or is it the other way around? "A Veracity A Mendacity" questions if there, in the name of reason, can exist only one truth to any situation, and who should have the mandate to tell others what is right and what is wrong.
