Portrait of Wally - documentary Director: Andrew Shea USA-Austria 2012 / English / 90 minutes
This tautly paced, arousing film traces the history of this iconic image from Schiele's gesture of affection for his young lover, to the Nazi theft of the painting, to its exhibition at MOMA and the 13-year court battle that ensued. A cinematic thriller that spins a web of intrigue exposing government manipulation, questionable philanthropists and institutional hypocrisy.
