[edit] Plot
Life in North Korea is examined through interviews with North Korean defectors. Included are stories from people who served time in North Korean prison, former military officers, and artists, among others.
[edit] Reception
The film was met with little theatrical views and generally mixed reviews. While the review aggregator website, Metacritic, gave the film a weighted average of 44/100, based on only four reviews, Rottentomatoes, another review aggregator, gave it a 60/100 rating out of 10 reviews. On both Metacritic and Rottentomates, the audience reviews are more positive than the critics' ratings.
