ART AND THEFT

Directed by Sara Magenheimer
United States, 2017
Avant-Garde, Short

Synopsis

Magenheimer’s video explores the bounds of narrative and the illusion of received wisdom in the seven minutes and twenty-two seconds it takes to rob a house. Here, images of medieval art, popular cinema, and “live” news reportage speak candidly to the constructedness of all storytelling traditions.
