Koryo Tours is the official partner of the 15th Pyongyang International Film Festival, which will be held in Pyongyang, DPRK, from September 16th to 23rd, 2016. Be there to see the glitz and glamour on Pyongyang¹s red carpet at the opening ceremony.
The tour will include the opening ceremony, film screenings, opportunities to meet directors, actors, students, and visit film studio and film locations where Koryo Group filmed their co-production "Comrade Kim Goes Flying" and of course you will watch Korean and international films with a local audience.
Price includes tickets to the opening ceremony and film screenings. Since 2002 this biennial festival has been run as a true international festival welcoming films from around the world, whereas previously the event was reserved for ‘non-aligned and other developing countries’ including: Australia, France, Canada, Malaysia, China, Iran, Pakistan, UK, Mongolia, Thailand, Germany. Koryo Tours has worked closely with the festival organizers to expand and improve the range of films shown at the festival and thus seen by large numbers of the DPRK population. Together with the British Embassy and Ealing Studios, Koryo Tours have arranged for many films from around the world to be entered in competition, the most well-known include ‘Bend it like Beckham’ ‘Mr. Bean Disaster Movie’, ‘The March of the Penguins’, and ‘Bride and Prejudice’. Please note that the final program of events is not released until a few days before the start of the festival.
