Background

On July 6, Paris' Louvre Museum reopened after being closed for several months amid the coronavirus pandemic. Art enthusiasts that traveled to the famous institution to view the well-known works were met with quite a different experience than they would have previously had before the spread of COVID-19 as they visited the gallery space. Only 7,000 people total with reserved tickets entered the space.[3]

The documentary was produced by Abbas, his duties included director, cinematographer and sound recorder in showing a near-empty museum, which included a tableau with a man sitting still next to Leonardo da Vinci's Mona Lisa.[4][5]
