Beyond Utopia Ratings & Reviews
- Kevin WardJuly 3, 2025Indescribably good. Please watch this if you get a chance. Made up of mostly cell phone footage of North Korean defectors making the harrowing journey through China, Laos, Vietnam, etc in hopes of reaching safety. Any misstep very likely results in death. Informative, captivating, bittersweet, heartbreaking. One of the most moving documentaries I have ever seen. Might be my favorite from Sundance 2023
