 Report of 29th KFA UK Film Night 30.07.2025



The Korean Friendship Association of the UK (KFA UK ) held its 29th film night on the 30th of July at 1900 hours BST . To mark the 72nd anniversary of the victory in the great Fatherland Liberation War against the US imperialists the film “5pm to 5am “ was shown . Participating in the film night were KFA UK members from London , Scotland and other parts of the UK as well as guests from KFA Andalusia (Spain ), KFA Germany , the People’s Korea Initiative of Poland and the USA .


The film “5pm to 5am “ depicted the heroic and superhuman struggle of the Korean People’s Army(KPA) commanded by Generalissimo KIM IL SUNG against the US imperialists . In the film the US imperialists plan a new offensive against the DPRK and aim to capture a hill of strategic importance . The US general in the film was actually played by the famous US defector Joe Dresnok . The US planned to have  a press conference to announce their victory .


Supreme commander Generalissimo KIM IL SUNG orders the KPA to mount a new offensive to thwart the plans of the US . This involves moving not only troops but guns and rocket launchers 40km over difficult terrain . The KPA succeeded in this task but not without sacrifices . The films end with the US headquarters being shelled and rocked by explosions descending into chaos .


The close relationship between Generalissimo KIM IL SUNG and his commanders can be seen in the film as well as the unity between officers and troops.


The film night concluded at 20.20 hours BST
