License Plate, Tattoo, Streb

Studio 360

Kurt Andersen and science journalist Natalie Angier uncover artistic passions for the human body. We visit a special effects studio that sculpts alien bodies, defy gravity with the airborne dances of choreographer Elizabeth Streb, hear a personal story about an ancient form of tattoo. Plus a visit to the Sarajevo Film Festival for the premiere of a film Bosnians have waited years for, and poet Bob Holman begins to reflect on September’s atrocities.
