Writer Ariel Levy interviews performance artist Marina Abramović, and a story by Simon Rich is adapted into a short film starring Alan Cumming (The Good Wife). Actor Andrew Garfield (The Amazing Spiderman) performs a moving poem by Matthew Dickman called “King,” and the cartoons of Emily Flake take shape throughout the half-hour show.
