Nestled in the Ozark Mountains, Branson, Missouri is one of the biggest yet smallest tourist destinations in the United States. Every year, visitors come in droves to enjoy family style entertainment at the town’s one hundred plus stage shows.

In We Always Lie to Strangers, we see a portrait of a community and its families, including The Presleys, who opened Branson’s first stage show in 1967, as well as performers Chip and Elisha who juggle their dual lives as performers and single parents.
