André Masson, an auctioneer at Scottie's, receives a letter from a lawyer claiming that a worker in the east French suburbs of Mulhouse owns a painting by Egon Schiele. André's first reaction is to believe that it can only be a fake. He decides to make the trip to inspect it anyway and against all odds, the painting turns out to be a masterpiece gone missing in 1939. This could undoubtedly be the major turning point of his career, but after a brief investigation, he realizes that he has in his hands, a looted work of art, with an opportunity to take an elevated path.

7:30 pm: CJFF Closing Night - Midas Man

When Brian Epstein set foot in the Cavern Club in November 1961 to watch The Beatles perform, he saw something no one else could - a glimmer of gold. Sharply dressed and well-spoken, Brian was hardly the most obvious radical - but being Jewish and having grown up as an outsider who had failed at pretty much everything, he was a 26-year old with something to prove and who wanted to tear up the rulebook.
