Story

North Korea is isolated and hungry, bankrupt and belligerent. It is also armed with nuclear weapons. Between 150,000 and 200,000 people are being held in its political prison camps, which have existed twice as long as Stalin’s Soviet gulags and twelve times as long as the Nazi concentration camps. Very few born and raised in these camps have escaped - but Shin Dong-hyuk did.
Amanda says:
"Worthwhile, but difficult on many levels."
It gave me an insight to a culture I knew nothing about. And it exists as we go about our life in the USA very comfortable. Do we really understand how fortunate we are to have our freedom.
What about Blaine Harden’s performance did you like?
Fabulous
