NETWORK - The Illicit Trade of Antiquities

"It was especially gratifying for me to see so many strands pulled together. Someone with no background in the subject would equally enjoy it -or be appalled by what it exposes."

Mark Rose

Archaeology Magazine

“A 'must-see' for museum directors, curators, collectors, art historians and art history students. Dealers and auction houses too should see this fascinating documentary, even though I am very pessimistic that it will change their attitude towards the trade in unprovenanced antiquities.”

Ton Cremers

Museum Security Network

The rarity of Greek antiquities has increased the antagonism between museums, collectors, curators, art dealers and smugglers, giving a free rein to a deadly network of illicit activities. This network is the subject of the documentary.
