      Soon Ok Lee worked as a supervisor in a distribution center in North Korea. As a loyal member of the Communist Party, she dedicated herself fully to her country and its revered leader. She fell from grace after refusing to cooperate with the self-enrichment of greedy officials. Soon Ok Lee survived six years in North Korean labor camps, where she continued to give her best efforts despite the harsh conditions. In a rare exception, she regained her freedom in 1992. This unique eyewitness account reveals how compliant citizens in North Korea can suddenly be stripped of all their rights. They are referred to as "tailless animals." Who will stand up for them?
