REAL MINH LOVE ART is a behind the scenes film series that showcases the life of intrepid art weapons dealer, proud womanizer and ex-Mormon Eagle Scout Eric Minh Swenson (AKA EMS). Initial screenings in 2014 labeled the project (first called EMS ARTS HONKEYTONK) a career-killing, narcissistic, knuckle-dragging, frat boy wonderboy project devoid of class. Panned by art critics, Steven Soderbergh disavowed the project and went on to direct MAGIC MIKE. New legs sprung when the CIA recruited EMS to penetrate deep into the LA art scene on a fact finding mission called BLACK BRIAR to systematically discern between which artists, art galleries and museums were contributing to society in good faith in an unregulated system. EMS RMLA is an insider look into the deception, scandal, lies and cover up behind the dark cloth of contemporary arts.
