Director: Bill Feigenbaum, Gémes József
Sharks have invaded the harbour of Hummingbird Island and to get rid of them, Sultan Magin brings hippopotamuses from the mainland. These huge animals manage to defeat the predator fish. Initially, the people celebrate the hippo team that has liberated the harbour, but soon the animals begin to be a burden on the local population. The furious farmers led by the evil khan Aban turn on the animals. Only Hugo the baby hippo survives the terrible attack and he is adopted by the local children. The exotic tale made in an American–Hungarian coproduction is like watching a family film version of Yellow Submarine. The florid visuals were conceived in the spirit of psychedelic-Art Nouveau, and catchy music going with the stunningly surreal frames were performed by legendary singers of Hungarian pop such as Kati Kovács, actress Erzsébet Kútvölgyi and Péter Máté.
