In August 28, 2005, a million dollar heist took place. No evidence was found and the perpetrators are still at large to this day. What’s interesting is that this is not your usual bank heist. In fact, it involves one of the most iconic movie memorabilia from the most watched film ever - Judy Garland’s Ruby Slippers used in 1939’s “The Wizard of Oz”. That pair of shoes is valued at $2 million. Amazing!

The documentary’s filmmaker is known for his works such as HBO’s “Superheroes” and “Gore Vidal: The United States of Amnesia” which participated in the 2013 TriBeCa Film Festival.

Support “Who Stole the Ruby Slippers?” via its Kickstarter page. It has 6 days to go before funding ends.
