The Red Chapel (2009) watch online

The Red Chapel (Danish: Det Røde Kapel) is a 2009 Danish documentary film directed by Mads Brügger. It chronicles the visit of Brügger and two Danish comedians who were adopted from South Korea, Jacob Nossell and Simon Jul, to North Korea under the pretense of a small theatre troupe on a cultural exchange. This is also the first time the two comedians have ever visited North Korea. The entire trip is a ruse: the goal of the trio is actually to portray the absurdity of life that they will lead in North Korea. An additional emotional aspect is that Jacob Nossell has spastic paralysis and North Korea has been accused of disposing of disabled people. The film won Best Nordic Documentary at Nordisk Panorama 2009 and Best Foreign Documentary at the 2010 Sundance Film Festival where it was included in the Official Selection. It is filmed and edited by René Sascha Johannsen.

The film features roughly the same contents as the 4-part documentary series Det Røde Kapel.
