Berlin, 2 August, 2022 (APA/OTS) - Country Queen, which premiered
in 190 countries exclusively on Netflix 15th of July, is the first
high-quality drama series from East Africa to reach a global
audience! Launching as No. 1 TV Show in Kenya on Netflix for two
weeks in a row, the series continues to gain stellar reviews, more
traction and global recognition.
When death awakens a sleepy village, its past threatens to
haunt the present.
COUNTRY QUEEN is a family drama series set in contemporary
Kenya. The new, original drama series, first out of Kenya, is
adding to the growing list of dynamic African content. The past and
present collide in this David vs. Goliath story when a mining
company threatens to destroy the rural home of AKISA MUTUNGA, an
ambitious event planner, who is pitted against a deadly
businesswoman, whose husband she is entangled with. Akisa finds
herself in the midst of a love triangle, as she struggles to find
her place in life by finding her true love and lost son.
Issues of land grabbing and exploitation form the tapestry
against which the fractured personal lives and relationships of
Country Queen's main characters play out. The fight for land
becomes a fight for redemption and truth. The characters have to
face the consequences of their own choices. The fictional story
carries many elements of truth that speak to a range of issues such
as family disputes, land ownership and exploitation that affect
millions of people in Africa and worldwide.
Good Karma Fiction, together with ten up and coming Kenyan
writers, developed the narrative. Good Karma Fiction's managing
directors are the show runners of COUNTRY QUEEN. Season 1 was
co-financed by German-French channel Arte/ZDF, German Government/DW
Akademie, a private investor and Netflix.
