| Combining the muckraking spirit of Michael Moore with the confrontational comedy of Borat, THE RED CHAPEL is a one-of-a-kind documentary that reveaIs the injustices of North Korea with a hilariously dark wit. ln this Sundance Grand Jury Prize-winning film, a trio of Danish comedians, who call themselves ''The Red ChapeI'' pretend to be regime sympathizers and mount an absurd variety show in Pyongyang. This stunt is Ied by the acerbic director Mads Brugger and assisted by Simon Jul and Jacob NosselI, two performers of South Korean descent. ConstantIy shadowed by their guide, Mrs. Pak, they fake aIIegiance to Kim Jong-iI and hope for ''One Korea''. OnIy Jacob is allowed to speak his mind. Suffering from cerebral paIsy, his halting speech is impossible to transIate, so he insults his sociaIist hosts and receives smiIes in return. THE RED CHAPEL is an unconventionaI, hiIarious and damning peek into a totaIitarian nightmare. |
