Ridley Scott helped to produce this drama based on a true story of an art forgery that rocked the Nazi high command during and after World War II.
finds a fresh and fascinating story to tell.

Yet it does not take long until Piller begins to suspect that there is more to the story. He begins to develop a complex relationship with van Meegeren, suspicion mixed with curiosity and growing admiration.

So he swindled the Nazi monster out of a small fortune for a worthless artifact.
