Post Screening Discussion With Director
What does the Louvre look like without the public? For the first time a great museum lets a film crew into its wings: people are hanging paintings, reorganizing rooms and moving works around. Little by little characters appear and weave together the threads of a narrative…From studios to stacks and reserves containing thousands of pictures, this is the discovery of a city within a city.
Screening: 27 October at 8.00 p.m.: Maison Francaise
