Crossings | Fear of War, Past and Present

While on their tour of North Korea, the activists of Women Cross DMZ are presented with a mix of theatrical performances. From singing to dancing and live music, the deeper message conveyed is one of violence during the Korean War when the North was attacked. As Gloria Steinem states, "this fear is being kept carefully alive."
