Sinopsis(1)
In the late nineteenth century, after an ivory-hunting safari offends an African tribe, the colonialists are captured and hideously tortured. Only Wilde’s marksman is released, without clothes or weapons, to be hunted for sport, and he embarks on a harrowing journey through savanna and jungle and back to a primitive state.

The popular concept of the human hunt in the not often seen setting of the African savannah. It’s clear that Cornel Wilde made the film almost by himself, but given how brisk and smart the result is, he can’t be blamed for his creative narcissism. The film hits the spot mainly thanks to its strong protagonists, the simple plot and the emphasis on the physical connection to the surrounding dangerous landscape. The pace wavers a little in the last act, but the narration delivers likeable human insight and impresses with a final gesture that highlights the natural respect and the order of the cruel but just traditions of the natives. 75%
