WHY SLAVERY? North Korea's Secret Slaves: Dollar Heroes
Doc World | Season 4 Episode 12 | 58m 42s | CC
With the promise of payment and honor, thousands of North Koreans are sent abroad, only to find themselves under constant surveillance and working in harsh conditions - with wages transferred to the government. The film shows how the country and globalization have made a pact: underpaid workers toil for the dictator's nuclear program while the United Nations and the European Union look away.
