Juche Strong -- A documentary about the North Korean propaganda apparatus.


This article is a plea for funding to get the documentary released.  From the short you tube trailer and the explanation of the documentary this looks like it may have some value.  I am especially interested in hearing the description of the psychological impacts of north Korean propaganda.  We do need to understand the impact of north Korean propaganda on its people because the ROK/US Alliance is going to have to deal with the people and the way they have been indoctrinated and work slowly to overcome six plus decades of same.

The intro and trailer are on YouTube at the link below.

Juche Strong -- A documentary about the North Korean propaganda apparatus.

Short doc takes in-depth look into country's propaganda and combats popular misconceptions of the country. Director filmed in North Korea in July 2012.


Juche Strong -- A documentary about the North Korean propaganda apparatus. is a sponsored project of Moving Picture Institute.

People tend to assume the country is wildly irrational and teetering toward collapse.
That's understandable. Decades of economic mismanagement have driven most North Koreans into desperate poverty. And the ruling Kim family's militarism and nuclear brinksmanship have left the country with few friends in the global community.
Commonsense says this is a forumula for disaster. International observers have been predicting North Korea's imminent economic implosion for over two decades.
And yet, North Korea has survived. It's still defying popular expectations.
How?
Juche Strong provides an answer.
This film explodes the most pernicious misconceptions of North Korea and argues that the propaganda-fueled national ideology has played an integral role in keeping the country together.
