I woke up to this.. 🇿🇦[S5 – Eps. 6]
EDITORIAL SUMMARY
Set in Tzaneen during Season 5’s Southern Africa journey, this episode follows an unexpected change to a planned rest day. After a night of torrential rain, the swollen river and overflowing Tzaneen Dam become the focus of the day.
About this film
The morning begins with a striking change in the river below the lodge. A thunderstorm had woken the filmmaker at 4 a.m., bringing torrential downpour; by morning, the river had swollen enormously. The lodge’s river raft was gone, and the Tzaneen Dam was overflowing. Instead of spending the day editing videos as planned, the episode follows an investigation prompted by the changed conditions. At 15 minutes and 34 seconds, it is a compact, story-led interlude in the Southern Africa season.
The journey
The setting is Tzaneen, South Africa, where the episode stays with the consequences of the overnight storm. Its route for the day is not a stretch of road but a change of plans: a rest day intended for video editing turns into investigating the overflowing dam and trying to locate the missing raft. The account connects the dramatic rise in the river with the downpour, while keeping the focus on what unfolds around the lodge and dam.
What to expect
- A Southern Africa season episode set in Tzaneen.
- An overnight thunderstorm and a greatly swollen river.
- A rest day redirected toward the overflowing dam and missing raft.
