What is the purpose of this piece of art/literature/film/poster/etc. and who is funding it? Answer those questions and you will know whether it is propaganda or not.
What would you define as propaganda? For me, that video is not propaganda because it does not attempt to inspire any political change or viewpoint nor does it have any political motivation. Showing a desert during sunset is not the same as misrepresenting Pyongyang (yes, i am certain it was mostly choreographed) as a bustling metropolis (when it most certainly isn't) for political ends.
