TUNISIA Feel Force the Journey to a galaxy far, far away with a tour of Tunisia’s classic Star Wars locations Words Pierre de Villiers AMONG STAR WARS FANS it is affectionately known as ‘The Igloo’. Home to the young Luke Skywalker, the white, domed structure was built by director George Lucas during the filming of his space saga at the heart of the desolately beautiful Chott el Jerid salt lake in Tunisia. It is an important piece of movie history, a fascinating film location and, to the consternation of scores of light-sabre owners who visit the building every year, in a real state of disrepair. Having noticed The Igloo slowly disappearing in the hot desert sun, Mark Dermul, on one of his frequent visits to the many Star Wars sights in Tunisia, had an idea. What if he launched a campaign to raise enough money for fans of George Lucas’s space opera to travel to the prized chunk of memorabilia – officially named the Lars Homestead after Luke’s adoptive Tatooine family – and renovate it? What followed underlines just how much Tunisia and its Star Wars film locations mean to fans. 84 Thomas Cook Travel CREDIT: PHOTOGRAPHY XXXXXXXXX RONALD GRANT ARCHIVE
