Antonio Mainenti – Kim Pop

The making of this program is only possible because the image of Kim Jung, the leader of North Korea, has entered the collective consciousness. And he is there more like an icon that alludes as much to Walt Disney’s comic strip world as to the ironicly presented villain in the James Bond movies, as a person who is part of a global political reality.

Antonio Mainenti depicts Kim as a DJ. Through his choice of music the listener can imagine manners and moves of Kim, who, not so very long ago, as a teenager, lived the good life in a consumer’s paradise.

word to Antonio.
