Through these stories and the museum's quotidian we overlook the history and the essential role of the institution: to disseminate critical thinking in society through human relationships and artworks. It also makes the perennial clash of the museum and society of rules clear: a totalitarian ideological force that - in addition to the dichotomy of liberalism and conservatism - preaches exclusion and standardized ways of being. In an always conciliatory tone, the film narrates the museum's various efforts to question and keep the hope for a discursive society alive.
