Africa

1930 · 6 min

A giddy, rubbery cartoon sprint through desert gags, songs and slapstick, over before you can stop grinning.

Genres
Animation, Music
Starring
Pinto Colvig
Overview
Oswald is riding on a camel; he defeats an attacking lion, using the camel's humps as cannonballs. In Cairo, he meets a queen and sings her his theme song; the sphinx and a couple pyramids join in, but the king isn't as happy.
How it feels
Whimsical, light, absurd and campy. Brisk and fine in the background.
About
Love, identity, survival
Content
Mild violence. No gore, sexual content or swearing.
