Recorded only at country level
Wikidata also records this film as shot in Estuaire Province, Koror, Macuata, Microregion of Jalapão, Petén Department, without saying where. Those statements are true but unmappable — a pin in the middle of a country would claim something nobody wrote — so they are listed here instead of guessed at.
