    Edit
    • Trivia
      Although the series is set in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, that country was deemed too dangerous for cast and crew. Jungle and rural scenes were filmed in the KwaZulu province of South Africa and the interiors were shot in Cape Town. Filming in the former British colony of South Africa (now the Republic of South Africa) explains why the vehicles have right hand drive as in the United Kingdom.
    • Goofs
      There are a lot of strange uses of the French language and several African speakers have the wrong accent. Some have a nearly perfect France accent, others sound American, nearly none actually speaks like people from Rwanda (which has few French speakers) or DRC.

    Just okay
    What could have been an incredible mystery, political conspiracy film left me asking "what was the point of that?" by the end of episode 7. If you were shocked by any of the "twists" places in the story you should broaden your horizons a bit more. The story had so much potential and sadly fell incredibly short. The best part of the show is Kate Beckinse's amazing hair which magically stays perfectly curled even while walking through a jungle for days. It was truly my favorite part of the show.
