Biopic for 'Out of Africa' Writer Karen Blixen
, a biopic on the late Danish writer, best known for her 1937 autobiography, which was turned into the 1985 Oscar-winning film starring Meryl Streep as Blixen alongside Robert Redford.is attached to direct. She will co-write the script with Jakob Weis based on, a new biography on Blixen by acclaimed author and historian Tom Buk-Swienty.
She was not only a victim – she was also dominant and enslaved by her emotions. My dream is to create a film about the experiences that gave birth to the literature of Karen Blixen later in life. It is the story of a privileged woman with an almost greedy lust for adventure. She strives to live an authentic life and thereby challenges the expectations of the bourgeois structures she was brought up in. And once she returns from Africa after 17 turbulent years she is forever changed.
