Tarzana, the Wild Girl is a 1969 Italian adventure film written and directed by Guido Malatesta (using the pseudonym James Reed).
Plot
When reports arrive in Europe that a Kenyan tribe has elected a white woman as their queen, Tarzana (meaning 'strange woman' in Bantu), Sir Donovan is certain that the woman is his long-lost granddaughter Elizabeth, who was thought to have died along with her parents following a plane crash in the African jungle. Wanting his granddaughter to inherit his assets, Sir Donovan recruits a hunter named Glen Shipper (and his romantic interest Doris) to journey into Africa to seek out Tarzana and return Elizabeth to civilization. This particularly places Tarzana in the danger of her own cousin Groder, who has accompanied Glen and Doris on their quest in the hopes of exterminating Elizabeth in order to become Sir Donovan's next heir.

I have no idea the condition of the film and whether or not it is playable. It looks to be complete and it does have a somewhat vinegar odor to it.
Very unique and rare piece of cinema history!
