Christian has everything under control. He is a very attractive and charming man. He has recently divorced and likes casual love affairs, and there is a young American journalist on the horizon, who may become his next trophy. On a normal day, Christian is the director of a prestigious modern art museum, which is a source of both power and perfect social standing. On top of all that, he is also an exemplary father for his daughters, drives a Tesla that cost a fortune, and helps those who have not been so fortunate in life ― particularly willingly, if that does not require much effort. However, he may find it quite difficult to maintain his meticulously preserved image, during preparations for the première of “The Square” installation on the success of which Christian puts great hope.
