Description: Naifa is the Swahili word for nation, and the subject of this animated film is the growing spirit of Black nationalism. In a jar located in a toy store window, a black ball is harassed and outnumbered by white balls. The black ball duplicates itself and ceases to be overwhelmed by the white spheres. The black balls abandon the jar and establish an African-style village.
