The African Queen was a 1951 adventure film starring Humphrey Bogart and Katharine Hepburn.
Set in German East Africa (Tanzania) during the First World War, it is actually based upon real events.
This is the story of Mimi, Toutou, a wacky British commander and the moment when the Royal Navy fought the German Imperial Navy on a lake deep inside Africa - the battle for lake Tanganyika.
