West Indies: The Fugitive Slaves of Liberty () is a 1979 Algerian-Mauritanian French-language musical drama film directed by Med Hondo. The plot of the film was adapted from a play titled Les négriers (The Slavers), written by Daniel Boukman. The film is highly regarded as a landmark film in the history of African cinema as it was made with a lavish budget of US$1.35 million, making it one of the biggest budgeted African films ever to be made. Against the backdrop of the colonial West Indies, which was under French imperialism, the drama was set on a slave ship. The film had its theatrical release in 1979.
