Under the Sun

Over the span of twelve months, this picture follows the lifetime of a typical Pyongyang family whose kid has been chosen to participate in another of the famed Korean “Spartakiads”. The ritualized explosions of enjoyment and color comparison sharply with pale regular reality, that isn’t especially awful, but alternatively quite surreal, just like a normal lifetime as seen “through the appearing glass”.
