The series’ synopsis says: “The search for a new face, after the happy one of childhood, oscillates between two consanguineous Naples which, however, fear and hate each other: the Naples above, which has given itself a fine mask, and the one below, which pretends to be excessive, trivial. Giovanna oscillates between high and downstairs, now tumbling, now climbing, bewildered by the fact that, up or down, the city seems without answer and without escape.”

The upcoming Netflix series The Lying Life of Adults is based on the novel of the same name published in 2019 by pseudonymous Italian author Elena Ferrante. The book’s Italian title is La vita bugiarda degli adulti. Set in the early 1990s, the story centers on twelve-year-old Giovanna Trada, who overhears her father Andrea disparagingly comparing her appearance to that of his estranged sister Vittoria. As a result, Giovanna sets out to find Vittoria on the other side of Naples to find out what the family is all about.

As a Bildungsroman, the novel follows the development and change that the main character undergoes throughout the story. Perhaps that’s why Giovanna’s journey in search of her estranged sister is also a journey in which she comes to know herself.

In May 2020, Netflix announced that The Lying Life of Adults would be adapted as a television series in collaboration with Italian production company Fandango.
