À la Poursuite des Pilleurs de Temples (2014)
Overview: In 1972 during Cambodia's civil war a sandstone statue was torn from the age-old Koh Ker temple. Measuring 1.58m high and weighing 110 kilos it depicts a prince and belongs to a collection that retraces the epic of the Mahabharata. The sculpture was first sold at auction in London in 1975 via a strange British art dealer based in Bangkok and reappeared in 2011 at Sotheby's in New York with a bid of $2.5 million. A sale that was ultimately prohibited. In the meantime experts from the École française d'Extrême-Orient an American lawyer commissioned by Phnom Penh and UNESCO mobilized the Heritage Police across the Atlantic to denounce the theft of a cultural asset. In 2013 the work was returned to Cambodia. A captivating investigation into the international mafia of antiquities trafficking.
