Plot.
A film based on a mock trial staged at an art fair in Madrid in February 2007 organized by Anton Vidokle and Tirdad Zolghadr. It playfully raises a number of polemical issues in the world of contemporary art: collusion with the "new bourgeoisie," instrumentalization of art and its institutions, the future possibility of artistic agency, as well as other pertinent topics.
