Review #3 - Seoul Train

I never knew about the difficulties in North Korea. Everyone usually talks about China and their predicaments but seeing this film educated me on the struggles of North Korea. Although it was a short film it was very constructive and upsetting. Seeing how people tried to migrate to China for a better life was ordinary but to witness China being so aggressive and strict was overwhelming. I never knew that China could be so disintegrating especially to women who attempted to cross the wall; what made it worse was knowing that families would then disappear after trying, which probably resulted in death. Families were shown trying to get over the border and being attacked by the guards, which was heart-breaking because it was so discriminatory and scary. Luckily there was a man who helped people out and that needs to continue in order for justice to be established.
