The Ugly Truth was screened on the 5th and final day at the Fort Myers Beach International Film Festival. The movie deals with the problems and fragility of a small family that has to deal with the consequences of an unexpected visit. The cast features popular faces of German cinema, Lillie Liefers and Emma Schweiger. Unfortunately the movie was somehow a disappointment because it doesn't have great production values or a story that stays with you. It is still noteworthy for the budget it was made with and it is still a nice addition to a festival that attracts international filmmakers and gives space to a variety of genres.
