Very creative design, but unfortunately the overall plot is too random

In a world where no one tells lies, such a design is quite innovative, but the overall plot of this drama is too casual, giving people the feeling of too much nonsense.

Yes, this kind of fairy tale requires a high level of imagination. But at the same time, it is also the most thoughtful and well thought out. This achieves the dual effect of rich imagination and refined conception (Tim Burton's film can achieve this effect).

PS:
In fact, I personally feel that the definition of "lie" in the film is a bit inaccurate. First, not lying does not mean what you say is what you say. Personal opinions, knowledge, etc. can affect what a person says, so in a world without lies, it is impossible to say anything, at least the other party should come up with evidence (I want to know if there are mental hospitals or mental patients in this world) . Second, not answering is not a "lie". There is a plot in the play where someone asks the thief's name, and the thief says it out of his mouth. So if he doesn't say it, is it a lie? If you think about it this way, this is not a world without lies, but a world of innocence and kindness.
(I don't think I think too much. I feel that the idea of ​​the script is indeed a bit casual.)
