Hey all,

I just watched a cool family movie from the DPRK, and I had to share it here because nobody else cared haha.

Personally, it was an incredible experience. First, just by itself it’s a cool and wholesome film about a badass female comrade in the DPRK. Second, it was refreshing to peer into the (albeit scripted) lives of the people. And third, it helped deconstruct my subconscious liberal assumptions about them.

Despite a vastly different culture (e.g. trusting and generous to strangers, coequal friendly workplace management), the movie was accessible and engaging.

No more spoilers, because I genuinely encourage you to watch it (link in the post title).

Have any of you seen DPRK productions before?

      Thanks for sharing all of these!

      BTW, I just paid the money for the movie, I guess I hoped that DPRK would be receiving the funds. Nonetheless, I appreciate your sharing the link so everybody else can view it as well.

      The haircut is excellent material to show my favorite liberals. I look forward to watching the others as well, this made my day thanks again

        Did you get a chance to check it out? I’d like to hear your thoughts.

        Aside from the big reasons we appreciate the DPRK, this movie reminded me of the smaller luxuries of living under communism: there were no advertisements or product placement (with one exception of an imported item in the film), there are well kept public spaces available to everyone, and the workers seemed to care about their jobs because their team is counting on them, not out of fear or desperation
