Tiki Tiki is a Canadian comedy film, directed by Gerald Potterton and released in 1971.[1] Created by intercutting animated sequences with live-action footage from the Russian children's film Aybolit-66, the animated sequences tell the story of a group of monkeys who are working to produce a film, while the Aybolit-66 footage represents the film they are making.[1] The film was inspired in part by Woody Allen's 1966 film What's Up, Tiger Lily?, which used original dialogue to recontextualize a foreign-language film.[2]

The film's voice cast included Barry Baldaro, Gayle Claitman, Patrick Conlon, Peter Cullen, Jean Shepherd, Joan Stuart and Ted Zeigler.

During the film's promotion, Potterton acknowledged that it was a challenging film to market, as his production company wasn't sure whether to aim it at "kids or stoned teenagers or whatever",[3] and has referred to the finished product as "a cross between a whacked out animated version of Easy Rider and the Olsen and Johnson musical Hellzapoppin'.[2]

Alexander Kuznetsov, the production designer of Aybolit-66, was named the winner of the Canadian Film Award for Best Art Direction/Production Design at the 23rd Canadian Film Awards.[4]
