Putting his reputation on the line, an ambitious Ukrainian border guard finds the masterpieces of art stolen in Verona.

In 2015, one of the most daring robberies of the century took place in Verona: 17 paintings were stolen from the Castelvecchio Museum, including paintings by Rubens, Tintoretto, Mantegna, Karoto, Bellini and even the museum’s visiting card — The Madonna of the Quail by Pisanello. Unexpectedly, information is revealed that the canvases could have been transported to Ukraine. Having found out about this, the Director of the Investigation Department of the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine, putting his own reputation on the line, begins his own investigation, bypassing the official investigation.
