I chose this film for the screening at the request of the 9th grade when we studied types of countries by economic systems in class. As we can see, the film was shot under strict surveillance, of course, a lot of it is staged (the author warns about this, he was not allowed to film according to his own script or film it like a regular documentary). But I think he did make a real documentary, because the reality of life in this country is pretending to have a happy life and constant lying: the government imposes on people that they live well, the people pretend they believe it. I think they realise that not everything is perfect in their country, but thinking differently is a crime. The film shows that everyone, even children, are afraid to say something outside the script. The author even managed to show what he was banned from showing, the real life in this country. I think that people there know so little about modern life in the world that they didn’t even notice that the director filmed something “forbidden”: the “cult of presidents,” the cold school, the poor apartment (if you take into account that only the chosen ones live in the capital), old public transit, lack of modern equipment, intimidated factory workers who play along with the script, lack of entertainment for children.
