north korea without a guide

an afternoon in pyongyang during the 13th world festival of youth and students in 1989, being tailed...POSTSCRIPT: this was shot to show how artificial the scene was set up to be during the Festival - this is in no way meant to be a depiction of how things really were in NK in 1989!

@terrylharris Don't worry they're quite capable of starving themselves.

@terrylharris

Well, they are in fact starving now, so maybe that makes you happy.

Remember this film is from 89, when North Korea was still subsidized by the then UdSSR.
