'The Artful Dodger'- a silent movie with a musical score

In a busy city art gallery, an exhibition of paintings showing emotions is displayed for private view by important guests. The gallery curator is busy ensuring all the finishing touches are in place and her young son is bored. The assistant has dozed off after studying a painting of a child resting.

The curator's son, inspired by another painting entitled 'Temptation', decides to cause chaos in the gallery. The paintings' narrative and moods influence the gestures and action throughout this film. Familiar cinematic devices and the musical score help to tell the story.
