Description & Specifications

The entire story of Shin Dong-hyuk – the only person born in a North Korean gulag who managed to escape oppression. A gripping and horrifying biography, "Escape from Camp 14" by journalist Blaine Harden reveals a dark and secretive nation – now also a major documentary film. Barbara Demick, author of "Nothing to Envy: Ordinary Lives in North Korea," notes: "This is a story that bears no resemblance to others."

Twenty-seven years ago, Shin Dong-hyuk was born inside Camp 14, one of the five extensive political camps in North Korea, located about fifty-five miles north of Pyongyang. The labor camp is a "full control zone" – a prison with no exit where the only sentence is life. No one born in Camp 14 or any North Korean political camp has escaped, except for Shin. This is his story . .
