Sinekatalog’s take
Frederick Wiseman's documentary observes London's National Gallery, from curators and restorers to visitors transfixed before paintings. Long, calm and absorbing, it is a rich, patient meditation on art and institutions.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
