"Lejonjakten" is one of five film (three of which are now lost) that were made by students at the University of Lund, Sweden, as a part of their 1908 carnival. The film is a cruel parody on Danish producer Ole Olsen s "Løvejagten" (1907) which was at the time interdit au Danemark (due to the fact that a lion and other animals were actually killed in the film) but shown in Sweden. Dans the student version two actors dressed up as a lion and a kangaroo get shot by hunters, but the hunters themselves soon get arrested by the police, à l'allusion to a recent conflict between the students and the local police.
