From the organizer:

Come to the screening of The Red Chapel. Det Røde Kapel (The Red Chapel) is a Danish documentary film directed by Mads Brügger. It chronicles the visit of Brügger and two Danish comedians to North Korea under the pretense of a small theatre troupe on a cultural exchange. The entire trip is a ruse, The trio are actually trying to get a chance to show you the absurdity of the pantomime life they are forced to lead in North Korea. It is shocking, funny, wildly outrageous and at times deeply emotional as the disability of one of the comedians is dealt with by the regime.

The film won Best Nordic Documentary at Nordisk Panorama 2009 and Best Foreign Documentary at the 2010 Sundance Film Festival where it was included in the Official Selection. It is filmed and edited by René Johannsen.

This film does not have Vietnamese subtitles, this film is not suitable for children.

Free entry.
