Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

Yes indeed this was a great movie to watch. I first saw it when I was about 15 years old and i was thrilled. It is one of the first movies made in Zimbabwe. The reason why you see no wildlife is because animals live in the national parks (zoo's) and they don't wander around in the urban areas. The story hinges on the theme of ancestral worship as the UK's 'Jukwa' is always tormenting him. Don't expect to see fancy stuff as this was done a long time ago - and being a thirld world country - we did not have fancy cars and stuff then, we now do. Its a hilarious story - watch it and you will enjoy - - but don't expect to see animals - Africa is not just all about animals - there are people too!!! the nature channels don't show that. Trust me - i grew up there.

An interesting film, since being made in Africa but not really taking on "African" issues - in the Euroamerican prejudgement sense. Although some really good, almost expressionistic scenes the film is not as goodlooking as one would hope for. The story is quite simple and the caracters not very complex. A good atempt on the way, but much better films will come.

Jit tells the story of a young boy who seems to have fallen in love for the first time. The girl is from a richer family than he is from, so he spends an enormous amount of time and energy trying to convince both her and her father that he is worthy. She is already has a boyfriend, another man who has a shady reputation, but he has lots of money. It also goes against the stereotype most Americans have of Africa. You don't see any of Africa's wildlife...the city looks like any city in a third world country. What interesting is the influences of Britain (since Zimbabwe was once part of the British empire), and cultural influences of the U.S. world market. The star of the film happily sips a drink with a Coca-cola loga in the background for example. The film is in English. And we can't forget the music! The soundtrack is loaded with Africa's modern tunes, not tribal rants and drum beats. A great film. But it is hard to find. If you see it, grab it.
