Sydenham Arts Film: The Painter and the Thief

An Artists Trail Special Screening

As part of our celebrations of Sydenham Arts Artists Trail 2022, witness the incredible true story of The Painter & The Thief unfold this September. When a painter has two valuable paintings stolen from an exhibition, she is devastated. Barbara (the artist) embarks on a fact-finding mission to try and discover where her paintings are, and who was behind such a crime. 

What happens next is truly unbelievable, and unravels a voyage of discovery for both Painter and Thief. 

Winner and Nominee at Sundance Festival 2022, this is truly a film of the healing powers of art, and an intense exploration into the minds of those it reaches.
