    • Synopsis
    • Randy Schoenberg, grandson of the legendary Expressionist composer Arnold Schoenberg and international personage portrayed by Ryan Reynolds in Woman in Gold, brings his reluctant teenage son Joey along for the journey of a lifetime, through Europe and history, to reclaim 500 years of their family story.

      Along the way, they encounter kings, mystics, and a false messiah — as well as numerous ordinary and extraordinary people who witnessed Europe’s tumultuous past. Although Randy is renowned for recovering Nazi-looted art, his greatest achievement might just be reuniting the fractured and scattered shards of his own family legacy. Filmed on-location across Austria, the Czech Republic, and Italy, Fioretta finds “gratifying closure in the company that the Schoenbergs find: curators of a collective memory that won’t fade on their watch.” (Robert Abele, Los Angeles Times)
