A Kim Jong-Il Production tells tale of two kidnapped actors

Paul Fischer shares the story of South Korean actors forced to produce propaganda.
Author Paul Fischer joins guest host Daniel Richler to recount the story of two South Korean actors who were held captive and forced to produce propaganda films in North Korea.

Fischer says their plight -- which he chronicles in his new book  A Kim Jong-Il Production --reveals how important cinema is in the Hermit Kingdom, and how the country is misunderstood in the west.
