About Muzungu
Freddy and Dodò are two forty-something holiday resort entertainers. Their Africa consists of costumes, games, antics, postcard-perfect scenery, and—above all—that anthropological species known as "vacationers." When they crash-land a small plane amidst desert dunes, they discover an Africa defined by sacrifice, solidarity, and suffering.
Directed by Massimo Martelli, Muzungu leans on a strong ensemble — Giobbe Covatta, Felice Andreasi, Flavio Bucci — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 1999.
