After a man collapses and dies clutching a parchment detailing the location of a elephant burial ground, brothers Jim and Paul Dobson decide to hunt for what could make them their fortune in ivory. They tag along with a group of settlers looking to make a new life in Kenya, posing as guides across the dangerous terrain. But as well as the wildlife and uprising natives, both brothers fall for the daughter of one of the families, Ruth Meecham, that threatens to derail their plans and set one brother against another...

Starring Robert Urquhart, John Bentley, Susan Stephen, Alan Tarlton, Howarth Jones, Morea Soutter, Tom Lithgow, Maureen Connell, Reginald Smart and Kip Kamoi. This was also known under the title "White Huntress" when it was re-released under the exploitation market in the late 1950's as a double feature with Naked Africa. Although there is little to suggest why, there is a surprising swimming scene involving Susan Stephen that leaves very little to the imagination! Most copies of this film are of the edited 1957 re-release, so to find the original uncut colour version is rare indeed!
