The Gods Must Be Crazy

In this 1980 comedy film directed by Jamie Uys, a peaceful and isolated tribe in the Kalahari Desert encounters a mysterious object that falls from the sky, disrupting their harmonious existence. The story follows the tribe’s journey to return the object, a Coca-Cola bottle, to the gods, believing it to be a source of conflict. The film cleverly intertwines this narrative with the comedic misadventures of a bumbling scientist and a schoolteacher in the African wilderness. Notably, the film stars N!xau, a Namibian bush farmer, in a charming and memorable performance. This unique blend of humor and social commentary can be viewed for free on Soap2day.
