While the world is on the verge of nuclear war, a group of Western contemporary artists are invited into the eye of the storm—North Korea. The aim? To collaborate with North Korean artists in the DPRK’s first international arts symposium, presenting new and challenging art in a country where abstract art is forbidden. While the cast of colourful characters arrives in pursuit of a peaceful cultural exchange, the project may very well turn into a War of Art.
