action
A young child survived a plane crash in the African jungle and grew up among chimpanzees. Several years later, the now young man is found by an expedition and taken to Milan for scientific studies. Bingo Bongo falls in love with the anthropologist Laura and, after fleeing, discovers the city as a new jungle. The speechless young man wanders through a strange world, tries to understand the achievements of civilization and talks to animals. After the scientist has found him again, she takes him in with herself and her chimpanzee Renato. Bingo Bongo learns to speak, but when Laura refuses to have a relationship with him, he decides to return to Africa with Renato. A flight fails first because of money and then because of a passport. A crow stops his flight in the hot air balloon, which leads him to become an ambassador for the animals and to mediate between humans and animals for mutual benefit. Laura is very impressed and marries him, Renato also comes to a partner and offspring.
criticism
“Heavily predictable ecological comedy; an adventure and Tarzan parody with annoying moralizing parables. Celentano has no problems communicating with monkeys with his limited facial expressions; but the radiant Carole Bouquet is remarkably relaxed about having descended from Buñuel to Festa Campanile, ”said Massimo Bertarelli. The lexicon of international film is similar : "Superficial comedy with superimposed socio-critical elements, tailored entirely to Adriano Celentano."
