Bakersfield Mist - by Stephen Sachs

The story…

Maude Gutman, an unemployed bartender living in a trailer park in the California desert, believes the painting she bought at a thrift store for three dollars as a gag, is really an undiscovered Jackson Pollock painting worth millions. Is it the find of the century or a clever forgery? When eminent New York art historian and expert Lionel Percy arrives at Maudes trailer to evaluate the painting, the two embark on a fiery debate over class, truth, and what we personally perceive as valuable. Inspired by true events, Bakersfield Mist is a lively and entertaining comedy/drama about the meaning of art and what or who is authentic.
