Christian, a respected curator at an art museum, is a devoted father of two who drives an electric car and supports good causes. His next show, The Square, is an installation that encourages altruism. But it’s not always easy to follow his own ideals: when his cell phone is stolen, he will be dragged into a shameful situation. Meanwhile, the museum has created a campaign for The Square, and the response will send him into an existential crisis.
