"Art" is a brilliant and fierce comedy about what we think we understand about art and friendship. Three lifelong friends, Sergio, Marcos, and Iván, see their friendship falter when Sergio buys a modern painting: a completely white canvas, with barely perceptible lines, for an exorbitant sum. Marcos is outraged, Iván tries to mediate, and what seems like a simple discussion about contemporary art transforms into an explosive confrontation about taste, values, ego, and loyalty between friends.
