    The Art of Lies: Dilemma, Betrayal, and Vietnamese Art Forgeries. What if the Biggest Fraud was Your Family Legacy?

    What happens when an ambitious museum employee from Vietnam discovers art crime that affects her family and country? Thuy, a proud 39-year-old aspiring museum curator in Hanoi, Vietnam, loses a long-sought-after job but then gets the chance to mount a major visiting exhibit at her museum, which could boost her career. The exhibit will showcase paintings “returning home” to Vietnam. A collector in France has offered to loan Vietnamese artists’ paintings that have been outside the country for years. Several paintings are by her famous great-uncle, whose reputation has been critical for the family legacy for decades. But, right before the exhibit opens, she’s faced with the possibility that some of the paintings are fake. She must find out if they are, why they are, and who’s behind the scam.

    Her father insists she tell no one, not even the museum’s director and curator. She fears that opening with forged paintings could ruin her reputation, along with the artists’, the museum, and the country. She approaches the collector, who claims he had no idea and insists she open the exhibit.
