It's an 80s or early 90s comedy. It is about a black man (he is good at throwing mud from stick) who has a daughter (she has a sling, her hair is all in braids and she wears a hat) and a white man. They are all chased by a man and a woman who want money, I think. The girl meets a rich kid at the movies, who has all kinds of candy on the seat next to his, and they run away from his parents together. The men (girl's father and his companion) are at the party, where they disguise so no one could recognize them. The white one dressed as a servant, with his face colored in black, and the black one dressed in nice clothes with his face coloured in white. Somehow man and woman found the kids. The kids made many traps for them, and one of them contained an ostrich which was chasing the men, one was with the bathtub filled with acid (something like that), one with mini railroad. At the end there is an elephant who sits on a branch or something like that. His name is Jibmo or something.
I'm sorry if it's confusing, but that is all I can remember. I have been trying to find out the title of this movie, and I really hope you can help me.
