Escape from Time

The night watchman in an art gallery does not notice that six of the portraits are missing from their picture frames. They have been left stranded on the floor of the gallery and have made a decision to strike out for freedom. Their escape becomes an adventurous search for security in a home of their choosing. Their diverse historical and social backgrounds and assumptions are compounded when they meet two contemporary homeless men. One is helpful and happy to join them; the other dogs them to exact revenge. The final destination of the humans, as well as the remaining five portraits, is an ancient manor, once the sixteenth century family home of one of them where they settle in peace.
