The Desert of Forbidden Art plot

The Desert of Forbidden Art tells the story of how a treasure trove of forbidden Soviet art worth millions of dollars was hidden in a distant desert of Uzbekistan and evolves into a larger exploration of how art survives in times of oppression. Igor Savitsky managed to build up an incredible collection of forbidden art in the desert of the remote, dusty republic of Karakalpakstan. We see how this man risked his life to save the work of visionary artists.
