Full Plot Details

North Korea, formerly known as the hermit kingdom, is perhaps the largest source of instability as regards world peace. Its border is one of the most militarized in the world. The lack of impartial information, both inside and coming out of the country, is the perfect setting for a propaganda war, which will be analyzed in the film through numerous examples of the surprising way in which information is manipulated, in and about North Korea. Alejandro Cao de Benos, the sole foreigner who works for the DPRK Government, and many locals will show us their vision of the reality in North Korea. The other side of the story will be reflected through interviews to South Korean citizens, human rights advocates, diplomats, propaganda experts, etc.

Movie Reviews

Independent (UK) - 8/10 by Geoffrey MacnabThe Spanish director Alvaro Longoria's documentary about North Korea is startling, comical and often horrifying but very even-handed.
Pittsburgh Post-Gazette - 8/10 by Barry ParisWhat to make of this film and this whole propaganda game? In the end, I don't know. There's just too little real information contained in it. Oh, wait a minute... That was the whole point.
London Evening Standard - 8/10 by Charlotte O'SullivanSome may find Longoria's wry tone offensive but his playfulness is what make him worth watching. If laughter kills fear, this man is quite the slayer.
The Arts Desk - 8/10 by David KettleWhat emerges is still a fascinating, surprising portrait of North Korea, in a film that despite its new images and fresh perspectives, ends up highlighting even more mysteries about an already enigmatic country.
Sunday Times (UK) - 7/10 by Edward PorterThe movie shapes up as a vague yet intriguing survey of the hermit nation.
Time Out - 6/10 by Tom HuddlestonLike the creepy neighbours in a horror movie who make weird banging noises in the cellar, North Korea has become a source of furtive fascination.
Times (UK) - 6/10 by Kate MuirIn The Propaganda Game, the wildly surreal world of North Korea gets a fresh viewing, this time from the point of view of the only foreigner who works for the Communist government.
Observer (UK) - 6/10 by Mark KermodeRaising as many questions as it answers, Álvaro's film highlights how little we know of real life in North Korea, and how much propaganda from both sides continues to cloud international understanding.
Daily Express (UK) - 6/10 by Allan HunterNorth Korea is the most secretive state on the planet so we should be thankful for the small insights found in The Propaganda Game.
Starburst - 6/10 by Courtney Buttonhe Propaganda Game is an interesting documentary for those who don't have a lot of knowledge of the country but it lacks the depth and revelations that would make it a must watch on the subject.
