About
Anouk, 36, and Serhii, 41, translate other people's lies for a living and fall in love in the margins of a transcript. The third point of the triangle is the ceasefire itself: protecting it means never telling the truth to anyone who trusts you. A mistranslation you choose early kills people in act three.
