1s1968

A Documentary film released in 1968, Batouk runs 1s and comes from France. Soap2Day lists it with Jean-Jacques Manigot directing and Judith Jamison in the cast. It holds 9/10 from 2 votes. 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.
