Movie description:
Lost in the bush, a crocodile asks a boy to help him in exchange for which he will not eat him. The child accepts, and once the alligator is back on the water, he goes back on his word ...
A Cayman is lost in the bush, and asks a boy for help; in exchange, he promises not to eat him. But once the boy has helped him get back in the water, he refuses to keep his promise ...
This story, from African oral tradition, was written down by Moustapha Dao; it is a mixture of dream and Fiction. Some of the animals in the film are real (such as the Cayman, the horse and the cow), but others (like the hares) are played by children wearing masks.
