In association with the Human Rights Watch Film Festival (17-26 March) Index on Censorship are pleased to present screenings of The Red Chapel, plus a one-off Q&A with filmmaker Mads Brgger. This daring, humorous documentary follows Korean-born comics Jacob and Simon as they visit North Korea from their adopted home of Denmark. Working with Mads Brgger, who poses as their manager, they get permission to put on a show in Pyongyang as a form of cultural exchange. As bizarre an expedition as it may seem, the film gives us a rare insight into North Korea through the eyes of two hilarious and sensitive individuals.
