Under the Sun (2015)

Over the course of one year, this film follows the life of an ordinary Pyongyang family whose daughter was chosen to take part in one of the famous Korean "Spartakiads". The ritualized explosions of color and joy contrast sharply with pale everyday reality, which is not particularly terrible, but rather quite surreal, like a typical life as seen "through the looking glass".

Under the Sun is a documentary movie featuring Lee Zin-Mi.

Under the Sun is currently streaming for free (ad-supported) on Kanopy, Plex, Plex Player and Tubi TV and it's also available on OVID.
