Star Wars
Star Wars was one of the first important films to portray real Earthly places as being otherworldly, more specifically, the planet Tatooine. Tatooine is actually located in Southern Tunisia, which probably just made you realize that you have no idea where that is. Fear not, Tunisia is in a deserted desert region of northern Africa, and the remote hideout that housed Luke Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi still stands to this day.
