Acting
Under the loving but firm guidance of an old fan turned director and cultural diplomat, and to the surprise of a whole world, the ex-Yugoslavian cult band Laibach becomes the first rock group ever to perform in the fortress state of North Korea.

As part of the Spectre world tour, Laibach returned to the city after which it is named (Križanke 16. 5. 2014). The concert was clearly divided into three parts. In the first part, they presented material from the new album. With Milan Fras and Mina Špiler in the foreground and a recognizable animation in the background, the band replayed the new album and ended it with the song Whistleblowers. In the second part, they played some old songs from Brat moj through B Machina, Leben Tod to See that my grave and kept clean. For the third part or additions, they left Tanz mit Laibach and Das Spiel ist Aus. Laibach proved once again that they remain a young, agile and current band.
Filmed live in Trbovlje, Slovenia -- the town where they formed in 1980 -- industrial music group Laibach puts on a dynamic show at the tail end of the tour to promote their highly praised album "Volk." With their usual militaristic aesthetics, they perform most of the creative reinterpretations of national anthems included on "Volk." Music videos, animated screen projections from the show and other features are included.
