Overview
If the cityscapes and patriotic anthems of this film seem a far cry from the bleak landscape of Seoul Train, that's no accident. Dutch filmmaker Pieter Fleury developed this propaganda film with North Korea's consent and participation. It delivers an insight into one of the world's most fascinating cultures. A Day in the Life, largely prescribed by the North Korean film bureau, follows an average North Korean family through their everyday duties, largely dedicated to the glory of General Kim Jong Il. The film celebrates North Korea's success. But does it? Without narration, viewers may interpret Fleury's film differently.
