Eric Lafforgue is a photographer who travels the world. He went to North Korea 6 times between 2008 and 2012. During his journeys, he managed to take pictures of this country and show it as it really was. He also secretly took his photos with him on a USB flash drive. But his sixth visit was the last for Eric because the North Korean government has forbidden Eric to enter the country because he refused to delete from the internet the photos depicting North Korea in a bad light.
