Silence Lies (French: Tromper le silence) is a Canadian drama film, directed by Julie Hivon and released in 2010.[1] The film stars Suzanne Clément as Viviane Langevin, a photographer who is starved for creative inspiration ever since being disowned by her brother Frédéric (Sébastien Huberdeau) following a family dispute, when she meets Guillaume (Maxime Dumontier), a troubled young man who reminds her strongly of her brother.[2]

The cast also includes Sophie Cadieux, Benoît Gouin, Claude Prégent and Pascale Montpetit.

The film was shot in 2009, primarily in Anjou,[2] and premiered in August 2010 at the Montreal World Film Festival.[1]

The film received two Jutra Award nominations at the 13th Jutra Awards in 2011, for Best Actress (Clément) and Best Cinematography (Claudine Sauvé).[3]
