Propaganda Game

Granted controlled access by national officials, filmmaker Álvaro Longoria tours North Korea to contrast his findings to the typical Western depiction of the nation. A vision of North Korea shot largely in North Korea and portraying the country as a battleground for a propaganda war between its ruling regime and a hostile West, "The Propaganda Game" marks the second directorial outing for Longoria, helmer of the Javier Bardem-produced "Sons of the Clouds: The Last Colony" and producer of the Oliver Stone-directed "Comandante" and "Looking for Fidel," a Fidel Castro docu diptych.
