Liberation Day

The ex-Yugoslavian, now Slovenian, cult band Laibach became the first rock group ever to perform in the fortress state of North Korea. Confronting strict ideology and cultural differences, the band struggles to get their songs through the needle’s eye of censorship before they can be unleashed on an audience never before exposed to alternative rock’n’roll. Meanwhile, propaganda loudspeakers are set up at the border between the two Koreas and a countdown to war is announced. The hills are alive… with the sound of music.
