Mr. Bones (2001) is a comedy film that takes place in South Africa. It pertains to an African kingdom, possibly one of the former Homelands, and the quest for an heir of its throne. The king's prophesier, Mr Bones, travels north to Sun City, to look for the king's only (extramarital) son. At the same time, some Americans journey to Sun City for the annual Nedbank Golf Challenge. When Bones arrives there, two worlds crash into each other: While he doesn't get along with modern life, the Americans are astonished about his behaviour and the underdevelopment of the country. Extra trouble is caused by Bones' search for the prince and several bets on the Golf Challenge making its result very important.

Leon Schuster, a famous man in the South African film industry, starred in the title role. He also created the story and co-wrote the screenplay.
