Originally shown on YouTube in 10 parts, Propaganda appears to be an inflammatory, North Korean documentary intended to alert its people to the ills of the ever-present influence of Western Culture. Featuring a stilted narrator and numerous clips from American entertainment and news shows, this bizarre treatise illustrates how capital- ism and its poisonous impact has spawned a bloated society of uniform people born to worship consumerism and materialism. The economic element is also exposed, emphasizing how America’s anti-communist ways have resulted in a divided nation where the small upper-tier of the wealthy rules over an ever-growing, media-brainwashed, impoverished class that worships such vacuous celebrities as Paris Hilton. Oddly entertaining and mesmerizing, the uncanny and stunning Propaganda feels like a portrait of the West as seen through a funhouse mirror.
