Featured review
When the real seems fake
Laibach are a Slovenian art-rock group, who in 2015 went to play a gig in North Korea whose setlist comprised songs from 'The Sound of Music'; this film documents the story. Unsurprisingly, it's a strange tale, but it's also a very hard one to take seriously. Partly, it's because the band themselves deadpan every comment: in Europe, they perform dressed as Nazis, in North Korea they talk of "the most perfect communism". And we (and it seems, also they) actually see very little of North Korean society: film of their strangely mannered discussions with the staff at their concert venue is hard to interpret in the absence of a broader picture. If you told me the entire film was a fake I would believe it, although according to the best information I can find on the internet, the trip actually happened. But don't expect any real insight into life behind the world's thickest iron curtain.
