The new feature film “Days and Nights of Confrontation” produced as a sequel of “One Day and One Night” by the Korean April 25 Film Studio has been screened at cinemas, the People’s Palace of Culture in Pyongyang and other film-screening units across the country, since early January to add to the pleasure of the people who greeted the New Year.

Those buildings are packed every day with many people who have great expectation of and interest in the sequel of “One Day and One Night” which had deeply impressed them.

The film constantly led the audiences to tension and thrill with well-knit construction of plots and unexpected developments of human relations.

The son of a class enemy, who was brought to stern punishment by the revolution for conspiring against the government while holding an important post in the railway sector after the war, is keen on revenging his dead father while covering up his true colours for decades. This incited towering hatred of the audiences.

Through the tragic end met by the renegades of revolution and dregs of society who, infatuated with personal pleasure and wealth, fail to discern the enemies’ dark tentacles and eventually align themselves with their moves to harm the top leadership of the DPRK, the film teaches the audiences the lesson that those who neglect to improve themselves politically and pursue their own interests will only take the road of treachery.

Seeing the grandson clenching his teeth, pledging to take revenge on the system of the country in the closing part of the film, the audiences keenly feel once again that not only the revolutionary forces of the country have grown through decades and from one century to the next but also the moves of hostile elements have become vicious generation after generation.

The film on the theme of class education tells the immutable truth that the Korean people’s happiness lies in defending their leader devotedly and that the real nature of the imperialists and class enemies will never change even with the passage of time.
