'Pulgasari': The Strange Story Behind North Korea's Godzilla
When we hear Korean Cinema, we often think of South Korean Cinema, but what about North Korea? Sure, North Korea has its propaganda moments, but 'Pulgasari' might be its best one yet.

Mamma Bear, Poppa Bear and Baby Bear live in a cazy and tidy cottage in the woods. The entire Bear family is a very neat, but Baby Bear is so particular that Momma Bear thinks he may be just a bit too fussy. When Momma Bear cooks up a lovely bubbling pot of creamy porridge, they all agree that it's too hot to eat and decide to take a walk while it cools. While they are away, Goldilocks, an unusually clusmy girl, stumbles upon and through Poppa Bear's garden, crashes into the cottage, pirates the porridge, fouls up the furniture and finally falls asleep in Baby Bear's bunk. When the Bears return home they can't belive the damage, but Baby Bear has to laugh he sees the mess!
