Not This Part of the World is a 1995 comedy independent film written and directed by Phil Atlakson in his directorial debut.

Set on a single day, when former students of Boise High School learn a classmate was killed in a drive-by shooting while doing charity work in South Central LA.

[2] The film adaptation was shot over 27 days in areas south of Kuna[3] and in Boise, Idaho with a local cast including Adam West and Matt Letscher.

Schools Superintendent Anne Fox objected the grant to the Idaho State Department of Education for the film's brief nudity.

[7] Atlakson said the film's purpose was to boost filmmaking opportunities in Idaho[8] for the first time in 70 years,[9] since the Nell Shipman-era,[10] something West agreed with.
