Art Forgery! $80 million dollars worth. A nice man from China is responsible for the brilliant forgeries, but the heart of the story is the gallery manager and the people buying the fakes. The big question the documentary tries to answer but doesn't is whether the gallery manager knew she was selling fakes. Best of all, the gallery manager is there to give her side of the story. The biggest problem for her is despite a lot of evidence to the contrary, she believes the paintings are real. There are a lot of experts on hand as well to say it's not possible she didn't know the paintings were fake.
It's a good history of the case. Ultimately, I couldn't feel sorry for either side since it was just rich people cheating other rich people. Also, I'm not a big fan of Pollock or Rothko, the main artists for the forgeries.

As a matter of fact, my anger does keep me warm
