Strike a Statue (S03E28)
S03E28
A famous sculptor, tasked with capturing a fleeting moment of a despised European dictator, receives dire warnings to abandon his project. The individuals cautioning him, once loyal to the dictator but now intent on his removal, resort to threats of violence. Despite their intimidation, the sculptor stands firm, believing that art should remain separate from politics and refusing to halt his work.
