The story of a painting of the Supreme Being, ordered by Robespierre from the famous painter, David - a painting that was never made. It's also the story of another painting, that of the young Bara, a 13-year-old martyr of the Republic. From the inauguration of the Louvre - a former royal palace - as the museum for the people, to the death of Robespierre, The Sky Over the Louvre tells the eerie and disturbing tale of an artist coming up against Robespierre during the French Revolution.
