Some decent ethnographic filming is marred by poor and dull drama

In 1890s Kenya, colonialists attempt to build a railroad and must traverse the safari but are savaged by lions.

A rare British-Kenyan co-production is an amateurishly made second feature with an ethnographic documentary approach done by director Brendan J. Stafford one of the film's few redeeming features.
