Africa Speaks! is a 1930 American documentary film directed by Walter Futter and narrated by Lowell Thomas. It is an exploitation film.
Premise
Paul L. Hoefler heads a 1928 expedition to Africa capturing wildlife and tribes on film.
Production
Although the film was shot over the fourteen months of the expedition in the Serengeti and in Uganda, a scene involving an attack by a lion on a native was apparently staged at the Selig Zoo in Los Angeles and involved a toothless lion.
Hoefler wrote a book entitled Africa Speaks about the expedition that was published in 1931.
