Scenario

Theo Decker lost his mother in an attack, killed in a bombing at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. Left alone, the boy confides in the family of his friend Andy Barbour. From that moment on, his life turns into a painful journey in search of hope for the future. However, Theo knows Hobie, an antique shop owner who, like him, lost someone in a museum explosion. These two are united by a great passion for art.

Over time, Theo begins to bond with Mrs. Barbour and adjust to his new family, so much so that Andy reveals that his parents are considering adopting him. The illusion is dispelled by the arrival of Larry, Theo’s recently rehabilitated alcoholic father. Forced to move to Las Vegas, the boy takes with him The Goldfinch, a painting by Karel Fabricius that his mother loved very much and that Theo even stole from the museum after the attack.

Back in New York, Theo remained a sad and melancholy boy, even though he found a new friend, Boris, who introduced him to drug and alcohol use.
In the Big Apple, Theo finds part of Andy’s family and especially Hobie, for whom he starts working as an art forger. After abandoning a failed relationship with Kitsy, Andy’s sister, and taking on illegal work, he discovers that the “Goldfinch” has been stolen from him; thus begins a new odyssey in the hope of getting him back.
