Family history, done exceptionally well, though the conceit of an eccentric collection of Japanese netsuke--collected by the second generation of the Ephrussi Odessan-Jewish banking dynasty as they moved to Paris and Vienna as art patrons and financiers, kept through the uproar of WWI as the family was both devastated and liberated by the collapse of their bank, saved by a gentile family retainer after the Anschluss put the rest of the family's wealth in Nazi hands and returned to occupied Japan by the family's black sheep uncle Iggy in the 1950s.
