André Masson, an auctioneer at the famous Scottie's auction house, receives a letter one day stating that a painting by Egon Schiele has been discovered in Mulhouse at the home of a young worker. Very skeptical, he makes the trip and has to face the truth: the painting is authentic, a masterpiece gone missing since 1939, confiscated by the Nazis. André sees this discovery as the pinnacle of his career, but also the beginning of a struggle that could jeopardize it. Fortunately, he will be assisted by his ex-wife and colleague Bertina, and by his eccentric intern Aurore....

Danielle Solzman Solzy at the Movies In as much as some characters in Auction focus on the dollar signs, there are those interested in doing the right thing. Rated: 3/5 Jan 30, 2025 Full Review Erick Estrada Cinegarage A super modest movie that's very enjoyable. [Full review in Spanish] Sep 25, 2024 Full Review Ayeen Forootan In Review Online Auction isn’t only a portrait of the day-to-day act of forging a convincing “character” or life for [oneself], but also a self-reflective, genuine study about the attempts of the artist to forge fiction into the shape of a more authentic reality. Apr 14, 2024 Full Review Brandon Judell Brandon Judell (Medium) Engrossing, timely, and with a lead whose motto is “being hated is good for the job,” it doesn’t exactly argue there’s more to life than just cash flow, but it insists there're moral ways of winning that just might take more effort on everyone’s part.

Carlo C Comedia a la francesa, en sobre un pesado y engreído curador de arte que encuentra en el lugar y con las personas menos esperadas, la obra mas importante de su carrera, lo que abre un baúl lleno de historias, encuentros y desencuentros tanto en su vida personal, como profesional, así como en la vida de la familia propietaria de la obra en cuestión. Muy recomendable. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/22/25 Full Review Read all reviews
