“entering DPRK” by rail
May 11, 2011 1 Comment
UNCENSORED PICKINGS from my NORTH KOREAN DIARY 11.–21. April 2011
- On my upper bunk bed of Sleeper Car Nr.12 I kept my camera rolling from the Chinese-North Korean border to the capital Pyongyang.
- These are some shots from my film “entering North Korea”.
- We are traveling at 30-50km/h, the railcar window is dirty and locked but the landscape is fascinating.
- Huge rivers, bridges, rice fields. My eyes glued to the window, oxen pass by pulling carts and ploughs, people with shovels cultivating the field right up to the rail tracks and roadside preparing for the planting season. I see no mechanized help beside one tractor. I keep to myself while I’m filming, the two Chinese business brothers in our compartment are sleeping.
- “entering DPRK” was shot on DPRK Railway Sleeper Car Nr.12 from my upper bunk bed and shows uncensored footage from the Chinese border to the capital Pyongyang of North Korea.
- It is a train journey full of thought-provoking “Langsamkeit”.
