Plot

The documentary 'The Propaganda Game' focuses on the case of North Korea, a country with one of the most militarized border in the world, whose lack of impartiality as far as information is concerned, make it a playground for propaganda strategies. The film analyzed the many examples of manipulation of the story that North Koreans have to live with, thanks to the help of Alejandro Cao de Benós, the only foreigner working for the government. To complete the picture, the film also includes statements from citizens, human rights defenders, diplomatic and propaganda experts that invite the viewer to reflect on how difficult it is to know the truth.

Alvaro Longoria ('Hijos de las nubes, la última colonia') directs this film full of half-truths and false News.

Trivia

The director describes the film as "a road movie full of surreal moments".

When the doors of North Korea opened for the team, the welcome was full of conditions: Never go out alone, stop rolling when we tell you so or risk losing the camera and not shoot at military facilities.

The director Alvaro Longoria says he wanted to do this film since he produced 'Commander', 'Looking for Fidel' and 'Persona Non Grata' with Oliver Stone.
