Liberation Day
Directed by Uģis Olte and Morten Traavik
Norway, Documentary, 97 minutes
In one of the most unusual footnotes in popular music history, in 2015 Slovenien industrial/conceptual art-group, Laibach, traveled, by request, to North Korea to play a concert. Liberation Day documents the band’s trip to the secretive and heavily-restricted nation. Confronted with the demands of an ever-present censorship board, as well traveling under heavy monitoring, the group walks the thin line of maintaining artistic integrity while attempting to stay out of trouble. The setlist includes covers of 80’s hits as well as songs from The Sound of Music.
