True North, the Film
On Dec. 4 this year, LFNKR and several other human rights related NGOs hosted the 2021 North Korea Human Rights Film Festival.
During the Film Festival several movies were screened, including director Eiji Han Shimizu’s “True North,” the 2020 Annecy Festival officially selected film.
“True North” focuses on Yohan, who, at age nine, is forcibly relocated with his mother and sister to a notoriously cruel political prison camp in North Korea.
