A painting, thought to be the work of an iconic artist Norval Morrisseau, leads the rock star who buys it into the tragic and brutal world of an art forgery ring in Northern Ontario. There Are No Fakes is a journey into the largest art fraud scam in Canadian history, leading to Thunder Bay, Morrisseau’s birthplace, where an almost-unbelievable new tale emerges about the origin of the paintings, and the story turns several shades darker.
