LENGTH: 140 Minutes

PLOT:
Setting is pre-WWII Korea.  A group of village children keep having run-ins with the bullying oppressive landowner and his family.  With dreams of sailing away to an island where they can be free, they “borrow” the landowner's boat and set sail. They get lost, encounter storms and finally end up shipwrecked on an island where they must learn to survive.  Numerous adventures and misadventures follow, somewhat like Swiss Family Robinson/Lord of the Flies. Cheerful movie with excellent sound track.  Probably would qualify for a G rating.

Unlike most other North Korean movies, the political message is limited in THE TALE OF 15 CHILDREN, until unforgettable scenes near the end. Two of the children who have built a raft and left to get help, are picked up by an American ship and taken prisoner. The “Americans” with long hair, huge noses and brutal makeup jobs, drink, gamble, listen to wild music, and discuss whether they should sell the children into slavery.  Supposed to look like hippies, but definitely not mellow. They even have an “African-American” (Korean blackface) slave shown being whipped and beaten. 

BONUS: All buyers will receive a BONUS CD containing SPECTACULAR North Korean propaganda videos and music!!
