Film Synopsis: The Rape of Europa takes
the audience on a journey through seven countries telling a story of
greed and warfare that threatened the artistic heritage of Europe. For
twelve years, the Nazis looted and destroyed art. Young art historians
and curators from America and across Europe fought back, mounting a
campaign to rescue and return countless art works displaced by the war.
Joan Allen narrates this chronicle about the battle over centuries of
western culture.
