Song of Africa

Song of Africa is a 1951 black and white film made in South Africa. It was directed by Emil Nofal, an Afrikaner.

The film is about a man who returns to his village with a gramaphone and musical instruments to start a Zulu Jazz band. Daniel Makiza and the Black Broadway Boys perform.

It is one of four films made from 1949-1951 documenting original music and performances by Africans. A scholar described the plot as thin.
