Swakopmund is named as a filming location in the Wikipedia articles of 2 productions — in the section each entry below links back to. No Wikidata filming statement points here yet, so this page says plainly which kind of evidence it rests on.
“The film was mostly shot in Swakopmund in Namibia.”
Filmed here, per Wikipedia
Productions whose English Wikipedia article names Swakopmund as somewhere it was shot, with no matching statement on Wikidata. Weaker evidence than a Wikidata statement, and labelled as what it is — each production’s own page links the exact section the claim comes from.
Named here by Swakopmund’s own Wikipedia article
Productions this page’s own Wikipedia article says were shot at Swakopmund, where neither Wikidata nor the production’s own article records it. That is the weakest evidence on this atlas, so these get no pin on the map and stay out of the downloads — the sentence is quoted in full below each one so you can judge it.
