About the performance:

There is nothing so strange, in a strange land, as the stranger who comes to visit it.

Albert Camus

The production, inspired by the authors’ research trip to the world’s most isolated country – North Korea, questions the idea of freedom in the era of ever-intensifying global surveillance. The audience will have a chance to get a unique touristic tour through a country considered by the “democratic world” to be the biggest bogeyman, whose existence raises the question on freedom and non-freedom in today’s society. The show brings up many other issues as well: how extensive are the limits of our thought, conditioned by constant propaganda and the context which we come from? How relative is the notion of freedom and how determined by the socio-cultural context? Is the visible personality cult worse than the invisible cult of capital? What does the last Cold War remnant, North Korea, tell us about our,  “free” Western world? Is having an atomic bomb and a nationwide defence concept the only way to avoid imperial dominance? Is a socialist political structure always totalitarian? The show faces the possibilities and impossibilities to talk about a country outside our cultural and political code.
