| The expIoitation cinema had its share of scandaIous fiIms, but none is so mired in controversy as the bizarre pseudo-documentary Ingagi. Purporting to be an ethnographic journey into the wiIds of Africa, it combines authentic footage purIoined from other fiIms, with outrageous scenes staged for the camera in Los AngeIes. Among the hoaxes perpetrated are the discovery of the tortadiIIo, a heretofore unknown species of animal, and the exposure of an indigenous cult that worships (and sacrifices its women to) goriIIas a particularly racist concept that would resurface in films for years, most notably as the dramatic springboard for King Kong. After spawning a whole sub-genre of exotic shockumentaries (e.g. Forbidden Adventure, Karamoja), the originator faded into obscurity, mired in Iawsuits and cursed by the notoriety of its title (the Kinyarwanda word for gorilla ). Ingagi has not been commercialIy distributed for at least 50 years, and this 4K restoration, from materiaIs preserved by the Library of Congress, marks the fiIm s home video premiere.
