WOW! Fantastic Trippy BBC 4 Film 'A State Of Mind'...

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

... about North Korean Mass Games. And a rare glimpse into the North Korean family mindset.

Beautiful and heartbreaking.

If you only watch one thing on BBC iPlayer this Christmas, I 100% recommend you watch this. Lasts an hour and a half. If you only have five minutes to spare, fast forward to the last five minutes when the gorgeous 'Silence' by Delerium kicks in.

Stunning.

Caught the first ten minutes and will watch it all on IPlayer when get time. Worth watching due to the rarity of seeing anything broadcast out of North Korea, even if it is presumably a propaganda vehicle.

I dare say all of the footage had to be run past the NK authorities first, and the family followed are obviously having to be very careful about what they say, but the BBC crew still manage to give enough glimpses of the reality of life there. Fascinating stuff.
