France/2024/In French with English subtitles/91 Minutes/Feature Film
An ambitious Parisian auctioneer receives a letter from a lawyer claiming that a common worker in the suburbs owns a painting by Egon Schiele. Although he believes it can only be a fake, he discovers that the painting is a masterpiece gone missing in 1939. While this sale could make his career, he soon realizes that he has in his hands a work of art looted from its Jewish owners by the Nazis. This morally complex French drama depicts a single tragedy in the largest art and property theft in human history; dozens of Egon Schiele’s paintings were looted from Jewish owners and only a handful finally returned to their rightful owner’s heirs. Directed by Pascal Bonitzer.
