DIRECTORS WHO EXPLORE THIS
Werner Herzog Germany

His documentaries like 'Aguirre' and philosophical explorations of nature and human obsession in extreme landscapes mirror the savanna's raw majesty and primal forces.

 Cary Joji Fukunaga United States

His cinematically stunning work, particularly his direction of African-set sequences and documentaries, portrays the savanna with visceral beauty and cultural authenticity.
