Africa as an unknown territory, as a place of search, as a defined space for the otherness. Some of these ideas are present in this first fiction feature film by María Pérez Sanz. The director has been exploring various forms of the audiovisual industry to delve into the artistic experience. Her approach to the Nobel Prize-winning writer offers a subtle and nuanced portrait, starred by the actress and singer Christina Rosenvinge. 


Synopsis: The films is an intimate portrait of Danish settler Karen Blixen during her last years in Africa. It particularly depicts the special relationship with her Somali servant Farah Aden. A strange friendship in which differences that seem insurmountable dissapear thanks to an ancestral understanding.
