Two narrators, one seen and one unseen, discuss possible connections between a series of paintings. The on-screen narrator walks through three-dimensional reproductions of each painting, featuring real people, sometimes moving, in an effort to explain the series' significance.
Unfortunately the movie The Hypothesis of the Stolen Painting is not yet available on HBO Max.
