🎬 "The Mole": a documentary thriller about North Korea — watch and discuss with film critic Yegor Sennikov.
🎤 Guest of the screening — "Project" journalist Katya Arenina.
What connects North Korea, underground drug production, illegal arms trade, and African diplomacy? Danish director Mads Brügger, known for his provocative investigations, not only studies these subjects — he immerses himself in them.
🔍 In "The Red Chapel" he pretended to be a communist to do stand-up comedy in Pyongyang.
💎 In "The Ambassador" he bought diplomatic status and got involved in the diamond business in the Central African Republic.
🕵️♂️ And in "The Mole," Dane Ulrich Larsen, inspired by his films, decided to infiltrate the world of North Korean secret operations — and learned more than he expected.
After the screening, Yegor Sennikov and Katya Arenina will discuss:
— Are Brügger's works journalism?
— Is it possible to replicate his experience?
— And what do his films tell us about the world today?
