Desert and Wilderness (Polish: W pustyni i w puszczy) is a 1973 Polish film directed by Władysław Ślesicki.

The film lasts about 3 hours, and is composed of 2 parts which were shown separately in theaters. Work on it started in 1971. It was filmed in Egypt, Sudan and Bulgaria, with an international cast and crew. At the same time, a four-part miniseries was made. It is very much like the movie, but has some additional scenes and the ones that can be seen in the movie look and sound slightly different (In Desert and Wilderness (1974 TV series)).
