Does anyone know where you can get these stories of Kiriku the baby in a African village.. who saves his village from a evil sorceress...no religion involved/ good morals..  intelligent script/ excellent animation. Fed up of giving my money to Amazon. Free download wouldnt go amiss though..

Cant praise it enough. It was so powerful watching an all African cartoon as an adult/ let alone if our children was watching these things routinely instead of Ben10 on cartoon network/ we would have ready made soldiers and scientists by default.

Had to share this with all village parents/ if its old news then my apologies...

What a cartoon..!!

I love me some Kirikou.  Check out this website and send them an e-mail:  http://www.africanfilmny.org/   I am sure they can tell you how to order.  I brought my copies from them.

Thanks bredder/ sister. I see they all have computer game too..makes a change from the Incredibles.

I only watched it tonight curtesy of a cousin/ and loved the storyline/ the subtle lessons to be learned.. man I cant wait to show my child this..and the rest of my family...

Just seeing an all black cartoon in a traditional rural setting setting with no Lion King American Hill Billy Texas sounding accents was refreshing. Trouble is we need about 2000 more titles like this. If you know anymore African orientated animations let me know please..

Bless.

Funnily enough I bought this film today

You can get it from http://www.moviemail-online.co.uk - they do loads of good african films I bought a few hard to get ones from there.

I love this film too- It was actually made by a white man from Luxembourg, and he created a fantastic film. Would show it to my kids if I had some lol
