| Description: |
| This documentary reveals the scandal behind art restoration. Through careful investigation of museum paintings and candid interviews with major critics and art historians, the viewer can see how frescoes by Michelangelo and original paintings by Rembrandt have been altered by restorers, simply to pander to tourists' tastes, sell art products and to win over museum patrons. |
