Very proud and sure of himself, he has only one dream- to finally be appreciated by his fellow villagers. Screwing up his carefully maintained image is his headstrong, narcoleptic sister Rym who falls asleep anywhere and whom the village is convinced will end up a spinster. One evening, Mounir returns from town drunk and announces that he's found a suitor for his sister. The fake story snowballs and snowballs until the suitor morphs into a rich, blonde Australian. The village begins preparing for the wedding in earnest - but without a bridegroom in sight.

Quotes:

[first lines]::Andy Barnes: What are the drums saying, Eli? Good news or bad?::Eli: Not good news, Boss. Not bad. Say safari come.

Eli: [after watching slow motion footage of a herd of giraffe] Bana say Bwana bring little black box on lion hunt, make simba hurry up slower. Much easier to kill.

Andy Barnes: Out there's part of it. Out there beyond the big rift; a vast unexplored wilderness of secrets that are known to nobody except the good Lord himself.::George Harland: That's what I've come ten thousand miles to photograph.

George Harland: How much further off is this rift you keep talking about? We've been marching for three days already.::Andy Barnes: Oh, another three day stretch should do it. That is if you don't stop too long to take pictures.::George Harland: Pictures? I could find more to shoot in my aunt's backyard than I've seen since left the station.

Mufti: Fire grow on trees in there. Elephant got two heads. River all hot lead. Mountains roar like lions.::Patricia Harland: Where on earth did you hear all that?::Mufti: Eli say little man turn big, big man turn little. Birds hunt deer. Lions roost in trees.::Patricia Harland: Don't tell Dad or he'll have us in there. Quick.

Patricia Harland: Well, I'm going to stick to you until I can make you take me back to camp. I can't stay out here all alone.::Bomba: Not bad be alone.::Patricia Harland: Well, you're going to have company whether you like it or not.::Bomba: Not like.::Patricia Harland: That's fine. Then you can just take me back to my father.

Patricia Harland: Who are you, anyway?::Bomba: Bomba.::Patricia Harland: Bomba? That's a funny name.::Bomba: My name.

Patricia Harland: Have you got a leopard skin I can have?::[Bomba starts to take off his loin cloth]::Patricia Harland: Oh no, Bomba, you keep that one. Get me a little bigger one.::Bomba: This best one.::Patricia Harland: Well, I'm not fussy. Second best is good enough for me.

Patricia Harland: I think I'd better get out of here. Before I decide to stay the rest of my life.::Bomba: Not like home?::Patricia Harland: That's just it. I like it too much.::Bomba: Why not stay? All good here. All friends.::Patricia Harland: Don't try to talk me into it. It'd be too easy.
