This documentary follows groundbreaking performance artist Marina Abramović as she prepares for and executes her seminal 2010 exhibition, "The Artist Is Present," at the Museum of Modern Art. Over three months, Abramović sat silently at a table in the museum's atrium, inviting each visitor to sit opposite her for an indeterminate amount of time, creating a profound emotional connection with strangers. The film captures the intense intimacy and transformative power of this durational performance, exploring its impact on both the artist and the participants, as well as the legacy of Abramović's career.
