True West

Dailes Theater

After their father’s death, siblings are clearing out the family home. In the attic, they stumble upon a dusty painting – a cityscape of early 20th-century Vienna. The artist's signature is barely legible, but the technique makes it clear that the painter was an amateur, and the piece has little to no artistic value. However, upon closer inspection of the signature, a shocking fact emerges: it was painted by a notorious figure in their youth, someone without whom the previous century in world history would have been entirely different.
