not sure if anyone is familiar with vice, the magazine, but they do some pretty edgy stuff, involving the vices of life; sex, drugs, rock n roll. anyway they produced a high acclaimed documentary called 'heavy metal in baghdad' they follow a metal band through the war and use their story to explain the experience of normal iraqis. its very powerful.
heavy metal in baghdad
but more appropriate now given the death of kim jung il (the illest), vice is allowed an orchestrated and manipulated tour of north korea and shows the lengths the regime goes to to brainwash the population. its amazing, unbelievable, and saddening.
