Every day, three times a day, the students march in two straight lines, singing praises to Kim Jong-il and North Korea: Without you, there is no motherland. Without you, there is no us. It is a chilling scene, but gradually Suki Kim, too, learns the tune and, without noticing, begins to hum it. It is 2011, and all universities in North Korea have been shut down for an entire year, the students sent to construction fields - except for the 270 students at the all-male Pyongyang University of Science and Technology (PUST).

Den fascinerende beretning om det halve år, hvor en journalist underviste den nordkoreanske elites sønner i engelsk.

Da hun i 2011 får mulighed for at tage til landet sammen med en kristen organisation, der skal undervise elitens sønner i engelsk, slår hun til med det samme.
