The Armstrong Lie

The Armstrong Lie

In 2009 Alex Gibney was hired to make a film about Lance Armstrong’s comeback to cycling.

The project was shelved when the doping scandal erupted, and re-opened after Armstrong’s confession.

'The Armstrong Lie' picks up in 2013 and presents a riveting, insider’s view of the unraveling of one of the most extraordinary stories in the history of sports.

As Lance Armstrong himself says: 'I didn’t live a lot of lies, but I lived one big one.'
