This uneven and uninspired documentary of Africa is a collection from various stock footage Female dancers in mod clothes dance on the Eiffel Tower in comparison to the primitive dances of native Africans A lone runner trains for a marathon and a few animals are shown in their natural habitat Commentary and modern jazz and pop music help to make this seem much longer than 66 minutes
