Why we chose it

For ten years a Danish cook secretly filmed a European fan club for North Korea, and the trail led him to the details of the country’s weapons programme and its illegal investments. The footage ended up at the UN, and this documentary will leave your jaw on the floor.

Synopsis

Ulrich Larsen, a cook from Copenhagen living on a disability pension, joins the Korean Friendship Association out of sheer boredom, though the club is really a European fan club for North Korea. Ten years on he is its delegate for Scandinavia, and the association’s chairman trusts him without reservation. The decade he spends undercover is about to put astonishing information in his hands.
