Conquista
Conquista is a gripping docudrama that pulls viewers into one of the most provocative and polarizing moments in modern art history. Centered on the mysterious artist known only as Conquista, the film reconstructs the shocking 2012 incident at Houston’s Menil Collection, where a $78 million Picasso masterpiece became the target of a bold and calculated act of defiance. Through dramatized interviews, investigative storytelling, and a relentless pursuit that spans the underground art world, the film blurs the line between crime and commentary. As authorities search for a figure who seems to vanish as quickly as he appears, Conquista challenges audiences to confront uncomfortable questions about value, power, and the true purpose of art—leaving behind a legacy that is as unsettling as it is unforgettable.
