Review
Welles wryly reflects on art, creativity and the fabrications that sustain them in this documentary about forgery and illusion. He weaves the stories of forgers de Hory, Clifford Irving and Kodar with a self-portrait in this meditation on the meaning of truth. A cinematic equivalent to an Escher painting.
