I first met Peter Herrmann in
November 1998 when he visited Kenya with the idea of filming
"Nowhere in Africa". The whole experience over the
next three years was extraordinary for me and the Kenyan crew.
The fact that the film is such an outstanding success is an
added bonus for us all, and for Kenya. -Jenny Pont

PETER
HERRMANN
Producer
Caroline Link and myself knew that
Kenya as a place for a film production would be more difficult,
complex and more strenuous than South Africa. We opted for Kenya
and were sure the film would be more authentic, atmospheric and
have better locations; besides, a Zulu is not a Masai or Pokot.
Some scenes required more than 200 extras, but the incredible Kenyan
crew made it all possible, despite many unforeseen events and mishaps.
We wrapped, as scheduled, the Thursday before Easter. |

CAROLINE LINK
Director
"Our story is an German /Kenyan story
and most of it in Kenya - and after a lot of brainstorming, we
decided that it must be Kenya. Also because of my wish to use
the original locations and the many extras we needed.
To make a film in such a beautiful country is an incredible adventure
and I regret not being able to have more enjoyed the magical place
Kenya is, as our relaxed crew did."
