Danish documentary from 2005 about Danish author Karen Blixen (Isak Dinesen).
"Karen Blixen - Out of This World" is a film about a successful, strong and devil-may-care woman, who went against the norms of the time. Blixen herself is featured in old recordings, and the film also provides new interviews with among others, her sister-in-law, Jonna Dinesen, her African waiter, Tumbo, the American writer, Judith Thurman, who has written a biography about Blixen, as well as actress, Meryl Streep, who played Blixen in the film adaptation of her most famous work "Out of Africa". The film's directors have gained access to Blixen's private photographies and letters which has never been published before, and the material is supplemented with new recordings from Kenya, Denmark and the United States. Much of the musical score is from Blixen's own collection of lacquer discs.
