Stéphane Breitwieser, a young Alsatian art thief, looks back at a career in which he stole 240 artworks from more than 170 museums, galleries and private collections. For seven years, from 1995 to 2001, he fooled guards as he proceeded to steal paintings, statues and bas-reliefs in broad daylight. When he was arrested in Switzerland in 2001, his mother, probably working with now unidentified cronies, began to get rid of the booty, destroying an invaluable and irreplaceable heritage.
