The initiative will stretch from Senegal to Djibouti and is meant to provide food and jobs to millions. The film, described as “Buena Vista Social Club meets Years of Living Dangerously”, follows Modja across Africa as she assembles leading musicians and singers to record an album that captures the spirit of the Wall, which once completed will be the largest living structure on earth, three times the size of the Great Barrier Reef.Director is Jared P.

Former BBC investigative journalist Sarah Macdonald, who won a BAFTA for her work at nightly news show Newsnight, produces for UK and Singapore outfit Make Productions (HBO Asia’s The Talwars). Alexander Asen is executive producer for the UN’s Convention to Combat Desertification, which itself is a co-producer on the film.
