Very Semi-Serious plot

"A partially thorough portrait of New Yorker cartoonists"

The New Yorker is a monument to the American magazine market. Since 1925, the magazine has published reports, comments, reviews, essays, short stories, satires and cartoons 47 times a year. It is especially the latter that The New Yorker is known for. The magazine has been the undisputed standard-bearer of humorous drawing for 90 years. 'Very Semi-Serious' offers a glimpse behind the scenes of the cartoon's creation process. Legendary cartoonists like Roz Chast and Mort Gerberg submit their work alongside young talent hoping for publication. The man who decides what appears and what disappears is cartoon editor Bob Mankoff. He has the (un)grateful task of selecting from hundreds of submissions each week and ensuring that the magazine remains relevant in terms of cartoons.
