The film titled "Out of Breath" presents the journey of U.S. doctor Stephen Linton and Korean-American doctor KJ Seung, who have been visiting the North every six month to help North Korean doctors fight the spread of MDR-TB. They have been working with the Eugene Bell Foundation.
The film was directed by Korean-American Hein S. Seok. NHK WORLD aired it in July and September last year. The Japanese broadcaster will re-air the film on Sept. 10 this year.
