Kunstroof plot

At the end of 2012, four Romanian men stole seven world-famous masterpieces from the Kunsthal in Rotterdam. The robbery becomes world news and months after the act, the police are on the trail of the perpetrators. They have stolen paintings worth millions, but they don't understand art and can't sell it. Afterwards the loot is set on fire. In this documentary, which also reconstructs the events based on police interrogations, the striking story comes to life. What does it mean that these works of art are lost? And what is the true value of art?
