White Elephant Trailer (1984)

"An amusing and well-founded semi-documentary about the resistance of the black continent to imperialistic technocrats" 01 January 1984 Comedy, Factual

This film was made entirely in Ghana and consists of documentary scenes and a fictitious story about a British engineer who wants to import microchips to Africa. But the reaction of the blacks to his plans to build a fully automatic plastic furniture factory surprises him. His faith in technocracy stands opposed to what they know about the environment. When the conflict has reached its climax, a spell is cast upon him... finally, he gives up... but his attitude toward Africa has changed for the better.
