Sinopse
Little White Lie tells Lacey Schwartz's story of growing up in a typical middle-class Jewish household in Woodstock, NY, with loving parents and a strong sense of her Jewish identity — that is until she discovers that her biological father is actually a black man with whom her mother had an affair. What defines our identity, our family of origin or the family that raises us? Lacey discovers that answering those questions means understanding her parents' stories as well as her own. Little White Lie is a personal documentary about the legacy of family secrets, denial, and redemption.
