2015 russian documentary of noth korea...under the sun
russian film maker vitaly mansky was left with the impression North Korea today is even more cruel than the soviet rule he was raised under. korean officals had to daily approve the script and choreograph the filming. this is the best they could do to promote their great country??
in the documentary you will notice there are no lights in the elementary school as the young students shiver and huddle around the radiator. the family apartment features a small 1980's style television and only one small wooden chair as well as a single flower in the window, otherwise extremely bare. there are no pets, no grass, no parks, no trees, birds, family car, no natural emotions. everything is concrete or asphalt. they feature the family standing in an elevator whose doors open and close, not sure if it actually travels vertically?? and there is also an escalator crowds use as part of their daily commute which includes walking, bicycle, and electrified train IF their electrical grid is operational. NO TRAFFIC JAMS IN NORTH KOREA HAHAHAHA!!
in a garment factory there is a big celebration as the female workers explain to their engineer how efficiency can be improved and attachments are added to their sewing machines for various sized garment seam,ribbon, etc.
the school lesson explains how great generalissmo kim defeated the enemy japanese boats by hurling a large boulder at them and shot down MANY american planes with a machine gun all single handed by himself!!
the sole reason for their existence is to thank and praise their great leaders for making north korea the greatest country on earth.
