Mister Moses is a 1965 American adventure film about a con man blackmailed into persuading an entire African village into relocating for their own safety.

This tribe is being pressured to move by the District Officer (Ian Bannen), as their land will be flooded by the release of waters from a dam; but they refuse to leave their homes.

Moses gets her to respond to commands in Hindustani, a language he acquired through his army service in the China Burma India theatre.

Reverend Anderson and Julie blackmail Moses through their knowledge of his diamond smuggling in order to lead the people to the "Promised Land".

Leading the villagers from atop his elephant, Moses takes them on a journey that has many parallels with the biblical trek, including a bit where he has to part the waters by entering the dam.
