Publisher's Synopsis
The few dozen tourists and a few journalists who come to the North Korean capital of Pyongyong are accompanied by guides and allowed to see only what the regime allows. Actors often represent pedestrians, and the consumer goods seen in stores are not available to the public. The Ministry of Truth offers a view of Korea as a giant installation, scripted and executed by Kim Jong Il to further cloud the truth about one of the world's most oppressive nations.
