The Spoils

The Spoils – Screening on May 2, 3!

Advance ticket info coming soon for The Spoils!

Amid the rise of the far-right in Germany, as the spoils of post-WW2 collections hit the world art market afresh, lawyers, curators, politicians, and Jewish groups the world round are duking it out, painting by painting, sketch by sketch, over questions of ownership, history, and morality.

From Hot Docs, and 5x Canadian Screen Awards nominated director Jamie Kastner!

“the film presents an eye-opening account…offers a gripping, poignant insight into the complex moral and legal dilemmas that continue to shape the art world today.” (Miami Jewish Film Festival)

“Dizzying tale…delivers some great material” (POV)

“a powerful new documentary” (Toronto Jewish Film Foundation)

“a gold mine of rarely seen stock footage” (Hot Docs)

*Please take note that doors open 30 minutes before showtimes. We encourage people to arrive early. We have a small box office, a small candy bar, and a single-screen cinema, meaning that when most of an audienc shows up a few minutes before showtime, it causes a bottleneck. If possible, we appreciate you arriving a little bit early to pick out your seat and get your popcorn. Thanks for your help!
