Video description

Group of 3 men and 3 children, surrounding sign in French saying: '[?] de Lubero, Equateur, Altitude 2200m, Don des Farines de Froment GMK Luberon'. Looking across to substantial red-tiled houses below hill ridge and cultivated fields. Views of ostriches, antelope herd (wildebeest?), jackal, hippo in the river, and flock of 7 ostriches running away. Giraffe, elephant and horned rhino. Hatted man creeps in front of the camera and squats down to film, no doubt just as our film-maker is doing. The rhino has paused. At the river, a great flock of bats as evening falls. Close-up of elephant feeding and distant snow-capped peak. Large herd of elephants, including very juvenile calves in distance and then back to feeding elephants, pulling branches with trunk. Fades out to view of jackals.
