In 1911, an Italian handyman named Vincenzo Peruggia walked out of the Louvre with the Mona Lisa hidden under his coat and kept it in his Paris flat for two years before trying to sell it in Florence. Writer-director Joe Medeiros, a former head writer for The Tonight Show, spent years chasing the story behind the theft, tracking down Peruggia's descendants, including a daughter who barely knew her father, to piece together his motives. The film mixes archival photographs, animation, and interviews with historians and family members to reconstruct why a Louvre employee mocked by French coworkers as 'Macaroni' would risk everything for a painting he apparently believed belonged back in Italy. Along the way it becomes as much a portrait of a man trying to matter as it is a heist story, and of a family reckoning with what he left behind. The tone stays light in places even as the investigation digs into old wounds, both personal and national.
