The Mole Infiltrating North Korea
The original title of the documentary is “The Mole Infiltrating North Korea,” so “North Korean undercover agent” may not be accurate. According to the content of the documentary, the word “infiltration” is more appropriate.Plot Outline:Director Brugger (a director blocked by the North Korean government for his documentary “The red chapel”) hires a man named Ulrich Larsen (also known as Mole) to spend ten years documenting the North Korean government’s arms trade under UN sanctions. Mole first infiltrates the “North Korean Friendship Association” led by Alejandro, a Spaniard (a magical group of North Korean admirers from developed European countries whose daily activity is to meet in a conference room or living room somewhere to Alejandro, who was a trusted “high-ranking North Korean official,” acted like a European agent of North Korea. After gaining the trust of the “organization,” Mole was sent to North Korea to discuss arms business.
At this time, Alejandro was arrested by the Spanish authorities and was restricted from leaving the country, so Mole hired a well-dressed man named James to play the arms dealer. After arriving in North Korea, James and Mole enjoyed a two-day tour of downtown Pyongyang, including a luxury dance troupe and high-profile performances, and were finally taken into an industrial park to discuss business, where the North Korean side produced a colorfully printed “menu” of arms products for James to choose from. After leaving North Korea, James and Mole traveled to Uganda, falsely claiming that they were willing to spend $5 million to buy an island where the plan was to build an underground arms assembly line in the name of building a tourist hotel. The Ugandans were extremely cooperative and willing to relocate the islanders within four months. What’s funny is that the island was chosen by James at random on the map.
The North Koreans were very aggressive in pushing the deal forward, even sending senior officials to Beijing to meet with James and Mole, and the deal appeared to have made an important milestone breakthrough in Beijing. However, due to the strict UN sanctions against North Korea, any foreign currency flow was restricted, so Alejandro came up with a “triangular trade” trick: Jordanian businessmen arranged for black ships to transport oil to North Korea, the North Koreans gave James the arms resources, and James produced and assembled the arms on the Ugandan island. James produces and assembles the arms on the Ugandan island, sells them and pays the money to the Jordanian oil trader. Finally, the North Koreans met with James and Mole in Denmark to finalize the details of the agreement and complete the signing.
Mole, accompanied by the director, confesses his double life to his wife. At the end of the film, Mole gets on the phone with Alejandro and together with director Brugger tries to explain everything to him, but the Spaniard Alejandro hangs up the phone.
