I’m pretty sure I posted this a few months ago, but it’s worth revisiting.
If you haven’t seen this Vice Guide to North Korea on VBS give it a watch. The filmmaker snuck in to document life, if that’s what you want to call it, in creepily controlled North Korea. The visuals remind me of a 1940s war film not real life.
I find it interesting how I pick up on these stories more from news sites that solely exist on the Web (VBS, Current) than I do in mainstream media. Granted, I’m online all the time, but still.
This filmmaker is extremely lucky he did not get caught crossing the border as evident of today’s reports.
