In the early morning of 16 October 2012, a group of young Romanian friends take 2 minutes and 48 seconds to steal seven valuable works of art from the Kunsthal in Rotterdam. In cheap bags, they stuff works by Lucian Freud, Paul Gauguin, Meijer de Haan, Henri Matisse, Pablo Picasso and Claude Monet. It is one of the most bizarre art heists ever, not only because of the apparent ease with which the young men manage to steal the masterpieces from the museum, but more so because of the dramatic turn of events when the boys are unable to sell the paintings. Based on transcripts of police interrogations, the hybrid film THE ART OF STEALING reconstructs this high-profile theft in all its thrilling detail, the search for the stolen works, and the doubt as to whether they still exist. What is their real value, and what does it mean that these artworks have been lost?
