Shall We Play a Game?
Chris Suellentrop and JJ Sutherland

- 34 minutes 55 seconds‘Carne y Arena’ - Shall We Play a Game?
You’ve got 11 days left to go see Alejandro González Iñárritu’s virtual-reality installation “Carne y Arena.” We saw it/did it/played it, and tell you why you should, too (if you’re anywhere near Washington, D.C.).
PS: It feels great to be back!
