"Indiqué sur la jaquette : National Gallery s'immerge dans le musée londonien et propose un voyage au cœur de cette institution peuplée de chefs d'œuvre de la peinture occidentale du Moyen-âge au XIXe siècle. C'est le portrait d'un lieu, de son fonctionnement, de son rapport au monde, de ses agents, son public, et ses tableaux. Dans un perpétuel et vertigineux jeu de miroirs, le cinéma regarde la peinture, et la peinture regarde le cinéma."
