Two days before the June 12 summit with President Donald Trump and North Korea’s leader Kim Jong-un, National Geographic will premiere Inside North Korea: Race to Peace, a new documentary from writer/producer Robert Zakin that taps archival footage and new interviews to chronicle the diplomatic milestone.
Among the dignitaries and experts featured in the film are former U.S. Secretary of State Madeleine Albright and Bill Richardson, former governor of New Mexico and U.S. North Korea emissary.
“I think he [Kim Jong-un] does have a good hand to play,” Albright says in the one-hour special. “He has managed to scare the whole region into doing something.”
Nat Geo describes the the June 10 documentary (Christine Weber is executive producer) as “an unflinching look back at the complicated diplomatic history of the region, with a trained eye on the future.” The special’s intention, Nat Geo says, is to place the June 12 summit in “proper historic context.
