Plunderer The Life and Times of a Nazi Art Thief

Stolen paintings, historical crimes, and a detective-like quest converge in this investigation of a Nazi art dealer who profited from looted masterpieces as Jewish families fight to reclaim their cultural heritage. Once an obscure art dealer, Bruno Lohse rose to prominence in Hermann Göring’s inner circle, orchestrating history’s most infamous art thievery. Filmed over five years across seven countries, historian Jonathan Petropoulos uncovers the web of theft and complicity that shielded Lohse from justice, as Jewish families share their battles to recover these stolen treasures and preserve their ancestors’ legacies. Exposing the unregulated art market’s disregard for provenance, this scathing critique confronts the enduring injustices and lasting human cost of these crimes.
