Following the rule that people are willing to believe any convenient truth, the unlikely crew from GREAT PRETENDER will amaze viewers with their intricate and relentless con games aimed at all sorts of predators populating our society –from movie industry tycoons to shady art dealers and even organized crime honchos– who are only apparently unrelated.
