Watching: Mercury

Overview

A young artist who works as a gallery assistant is taken to a luxury dinner with her boss, the gallery owner, after an international art fair. An art collector, a curator and an institution director join the table where she is introduced to the absurd and corrupt hierarchy of the art world. She observes the table all night and tries to take part in the conversation, but is not acknowledged. In every attempt to communicate with the important figures of the art world, she is disappointed.
