Exploring the labyrinth of the contemporary art world, the documentary examines the role of art and artistic passion in today’s money-driven, consumer-based society. Featuring collectors, dealers, auctioneers and a rich range of artists —from current market darlings, such as Jeff Koons and Gerhard Richter, to one-time art star Larry Poons—, the film exposes deep contradictions of contemporary values, coaxing out the dynamics at play in pricing the priceless.
