North Korea Opens Film Festival

Moviegoers will have the chance to enjoy "Comrade Kim Goes Flying" and "Meet in Pyongyang", among others.

PYONGYANG, North Korea -- An international film festival opens Thursday in what may seem the unlikeliest of places: North Korea.

Held every two years, the Pyongyang International Film Festival offers North Koreans their only chance to see a wide array of foreign films on the big screen – from Britain, Germany and elsewhere (but not America). And it's the only time foreigners are allowed into North Korean theaters to watch movies alongside locals.
