Le Tableau volé / Auction

Directed by Pascal Bonitzer

Comedy/Drama  –  91 min.  (2024)

In this thrilling satire about the highbrow art world of Parisian auctioneers, André Masson, a hotshot art broker at a premiere auction house, receives a letter from a lawyer claiming that a working-class family in the suburb of Mulhouse owns a painting by Egon Schiele. He realizes instantly that the painting is a genuine masterpiece that went missing in 1939. With the help of his colleague and ex-wife, a compulsively lying intern, and a provincial lawyer, André races to find a buyer for the prized work in what proves to be a delicate dance of deceit.
