Il furto del secolo

Paris, 21st of August 1911. A thief enters the Louvre  keeping a low profile. With a quick movement, removes the painting from the wall leaving a ring of dust around it. It must be fast. The lady in the portrait gives him an imperceptible smile as she is wrapped in his coat. A few minutes later the thief is out, walks away with a sweaty shirt and a triumphant expression: he stole La Gioconda! The police interrogate the employees, workers and custodians of the museum, think of a maniac, a crazy collector or a simple joke; then he arrests the poet Apollinaire for a few days and even suspects his friend Picasso. All wasted time! Only a young Italian immigrant named Alfio and the daughter of the director of the Louvre, Amélie, by joining forces, will be able to flush out the elusive thief.
