Product Details
Overview
Dos mujeres. Una misión: evitar que los nazis roben y destruyan invaluables obras de arte.
Los hermanos Sophie y Dietrich abandonaron su hogar en Alemania para escapar del régimen nazi. Cuando París, el lugar donde huyeron, cae bajo el yugo alemán, Dietrich es asesinado por pertenecer a la resistencia. Devastada por la muerte de su hermano y sola en una ciudad que alguna vez creyó refugio, Sophie se ve forzada a aceptar un puesto como restauradora de arte en el Museo Jeu de Paume bajo la supervisión de la comisión de arte alemana que utiliza el espacio como depósito para las obras que han confiscado a las familias judías.
La esposa de Dietrich, Fabienne Brandt, era una pintora en ascenso hasta que los nazis comenzaron a perseguirla por considerar sus trabajos como “degenerados”. Todavía de luto por la pérdida de su marido y la interrupción de su carrera, Fabienne vive encerrada en su casa hasta que Sophie, su cuñada, llega a su puerta con un cuadro robado.
Pronto, las dos mujeres se embarcan en una aventura para salvar las pinturas que el Tercer Reich quiere desaparecer: trabajan ante las narices de los principales conocedores de arte de Alemania para reemplazar las obras del Museo Jeu de Paume con hábiles falsificaciones, pero ¿cuánto tiempo podrán Sophie y Fabienne mantener su magistral engaño?
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
Two women. One mission: to prevent the Nazis from stealing and destroying priceless works of art.
Siblings Sophie and Dietrich fled their home in Germany to escape the Nazi regime. When Paris—the city they escaped to—falls under German control, Dietrich is killed for his involvement in the resistance. Grieving her brother’s death and alone in a city she once considered safe, Sophie is forced to take a job as an art restorer at the Musée Jeu de Paume, now overseen by the German art commission, which uses the space to store artwork confiscated from Jewish families.
Dietrich’s wife, Fabienne Brandt, was a rising painter until the Nazis deemed her work “degenerate” and began persecuting her. Still mourning her husband and the abrupt halt of her career, Fabienne isolates herself in her home—until Sophie, her sister-in-law, arrives with a stolen painting.
Soon, the two women set out on a daring mission to rescue the paintings the Third Reich seeks to erase: they work under the noses of Germany’s top art experts to replace the museum’s masterpieces with flawless forgeries. But how long can Sophie and Fabienne keep up their brilliant deception?
