Trailer: Comrade Kim Goes Flying

Trailer: Comrade Kim Goes Flying

On North Korea Economy Watch I see reference to a UK-Belgium-North Korea co-production called Comrade Kim Goes Flying, about a North Korean coal miner pursuing her dream of becoming a trapeze artist.

I felt slightly uneasy watching the trailer, and seeing the British director unconvincingly evading the BBC's questions about the way his film sugar-coats North Korean life, I understand why.
