Synopsis

In summer 2007, North Korea, the world’s most isolated and secluded country and technically at war with the United States, invited the New York Philharmonic to play in the capital of Pyongyang. Just a few months later, 200 orchestra members and more than 100 journalists disembarked from a chartered plane at Pyongyang’s airport. They were about to experience a historic moment, the first-ever performance by an American orchestra in North Korea. The film accompanies the orchestra members on their historic trip to Pyongyang and shows that music has no borders and that it can penetrate and melt the hearts, and unite people.
