One of the greatest challenges I faced in creating this film was the struggle to bring the beautiful, yet fictitious world of Zambay to life. It meant I needed to customize EVERYTHING to ensure that it is as believable as possible.
As crazy as it sounds, we had to build a mini community to achieve this goal… Houses, executive villas, offices, streets… you name it, we built it.
