A gripping and AMAZING film. Is North Korea really like that?


Saw this at TIFF this year and it is STILL on my mind

Lead by an amazing performance by its lead actor, "THE NET" becomes a truly haunting and amazing story of "Damned if you do, damned if you don't" . A tragic tale of being at the wrong place at the wrong time.
I keep thinking how amazing the performance of the lead was.

This was one of the most meaningful films of the year, and it's a shame films like LA LA LAND will get praised and not many people will see THIS FILM, which is a TRULY IMPORTANT INSIGHTFUL STORY ABOUT HUMANITY AND THE CONFLICTS PRESENT IN OTHER COUNTRIES THAT AMERICANS DONT KNOW ABOUT.

Sorry about Caps.
I'm just mad that not many will see this amazing film.

Has anyone else seen this and loved it as much as me?

Is NORTH KOREA really like the way it was depicted in this film? It seems really dreadful and I can imagine the CULTURE SHOCK the main character had when he was in downtown Seoul.

Loved it
