In traditional African societies, inheritance disputes often arise when family members compete for property, particularly when the deceased has no biological son. This can lead to devastating consequences for vulnerable family members, including being sold into slavery. The film illustrates how economic desperation and greed can override family bonds, with stepchildren and widows often being exploited. However, the narrative also demonstrates that justice can prevail through perseverance, community support, and the intervention of protective spiritual forces, ultimately restoring the rightful inheritance to the victim.

Major Roman.
I have married men to buy slave from other village.
>> Oh yes, >> I want to start carrying out my father's work on time so I can get familiar with slave trade as soon as possible.

>> My love, you have nothing to fear.
I am Agoba, the son of the great Otak, the descendant of UB lineage.
No harm can come to me. I am protected both physical and spiritual.

What happened? Your father sold you.
>> Flash of 32 32C.
>> What about your woman Adana? How will she cope?
H I thought I had the last laugh.
I don't know.
I didn't really get the last laugh as I presumed.
Just maybe she's with someone else having a good time and I'll just be here wasting my life as a slave.

I hope so.
I really hope so.
Well, let's get back to work.

>> With the end of the birthday, your son stands a chance to survive.
So you must not sell him.
What is your name?
Ek.
How could you heal a boy?
Very strong and potent medicine men have tried to heal to no avail. How?
I am not a healer. I have no power to heal anyone.
Do not get me angry.
Last night you were shown to me in my dream that you could heal my son, THAT YOU COULD DRIVE AWAY THE EVIL SPIRITS ATTACKING MY SON.

Mama.

Go back before it's too late.
>> I am sorry, but I'm saying the truth.
>> Aidi Agiddi, take the simpleton.
Drag him out to the back. Give him 21 lashes of the cane before throwing him back into his cage.
Now, >> yes, chief, >> please. I'm sorry.
>> Don't move.
>> I've done nothing. Go.
>> Oh, please, Chief.
Just take it easy.
Don't rush it.
There's water there.
And clean your mouth.
So, how do we intend to go about healing my son?
>> Tell him the boy will be taken to the forest of Ugumi and drink from its spring.
Where are you looking at?
Not minding that I asked you a question.
I would take your son to the forest of Gum where he drink from the spring and be healed.
Are you insane?
Do you know what you're TALKING ABOUT?
WHERE ARE YOU GOING TO TAKE MY SON TO?
THAT FOREST? THAT FOREST is the evil forest and is inhabited by spirits that drink human blood.
>> That is where his solution is.
I will guide you through the path safe and sound.
I'm waiting for an answer.
>> That is where the solution is. I will guide and protect your son throughout our journey.
If you do exactly as you have promised and you heal my son, I will reward you and reward you bountifully.
But if you fail, I will take your head.
I don't want freedom. I want to be your personal servant. I don't want to be sold.
D.
What if the boy wants to escape using the trick?
I don't trust him.
That's why I want you to go to the evil forest with him.
You wait at the boundary 3 days maximum.
The boy cannot escape the evils in the forest.
He has to be right about his abilities.
With all due respect, Chief, how could you trust the life of your son into the hands of his thief?
What other choice do I have?
But if any of you has any better alternative that will bring back life and health to my son.
Say it here.
or do what I have instructed.
>> Chief, no problem.
>> Calm down, EK.
You will be protected.
>> I am about to venture into a dreaded forest and you expect me to become. How can I be calm? You are not alone.
Trust me.
You will be in and out of first in no time.
My baby is cool.
Protect my son with your life.
If anything happens to him, you will have no hiding place here.
He is in good hands.
Let us go.
Get out.
We move along from this point.
>> Why you stop it?
>> Drop him here.
>> I will take it from here.
>> You remember what the chief said. any wrong move from you. You're a dead meat.
>> Thanks for the reminder.
>> They cannot stay here.
>> You need to go back home. Impossible.
We go nowhere. We stay here and wait till you return.
>> The evil of this forest to kill them at nightfall.
The evil of this forest do come at night. You can't stand a chance.
>> Are you serious?
>> Of course. It is called dreaded okome forest for a reason.
>> Keep what you you want to listen to what he's saying. Keep what?
I'll be with you.
>> Are you serious? Huh?
WAIT FOR ME. YOU GET THAT? YOU GET THAT?
What are both of you doing here?
The instruction was very clear.
Remain with him.
Chief, we wanted to stay, but we want to leave the boundary immediately because it's as dangerous as the forest itself.
Fools.
Fools.
Just pray that my son returns in one piece.
Just pray.
Just pray.
Get out of my sight now.
There's something obstructing our way.
>> What is it?
>> Pick this egg.
F it around your head two times and that of the boy and drop it today.
Please calm down. We have not figured out a way yet.
Please Adue, do something.
I can't hold him much longer. Adu, please.
>> He's being called.
Something is pulling his soul.
That means that direction is a dead zone.
>> But you don't want to go that way. What can I do?
Haga.
Haga.
Haga. We don't have much time.
Let's go.
I need to rest. We can't continue.
>> Spring is no longer far from here.
We should keep on going. I have not eaten anything all through this journey.
We need rest. Aguba needs rest as well.
The children of the forest.
>> They're heading this way.
>> There's nothing you can do but to dance to the melody.
You have to dance to the melody. If they enjoy your dancing, they will leave.
>> What happens if they don't?
>> Then this will be our last night together.
Am I not talking to two of you? What has become of you? You two are completely useless in this house.
>> Useless? Yes. N since we are useless, let us LEAVE THE HOUSE.
>> LET us quietly leave the house for you and never come back.
>> Oh, you want to leave to where?
So that you will bring disgrace and shame to my name. You think I don't know what you are doing. You think I don't know what you have been doing in this village.
It is my life. Yes. And you do not have any right to choose my life.
>> I AM YOUR MOTHER.
YOUR LIFE is my business. And you must take to my rules.
>> It's okay. You talk too much. You have to complain.
All you know how to do in this house is to eat and sleep. Anyway, I have decided there will be no food for both of you until you grow senses INTO YOUR HEAD.
>> THAT'S NOT IF YOU want us to die. Oh.
Yes. Die. If you WANT TO DIE, DIE. I DON'T CARE. YOU WILL GIVE US FOOD. This house not food. You will give us food. There is no way I will not EAT IN MY MOTHER'S HOUSE.
IT IS NOT POSSIBLE. SHUT UP. SHUT UP.
This is all your fault. Why will you be talking to your mother like that? And sir, is she not annoying enough? Please, please, I must talk. Leave me alone.
>> If you do not give me food, you will give me food. Oh, you will give me food in this house.
>> This is it. You must get him to drink from the spring immediately.
>> And who authorized you to come here?
This is no place for the unclean.
His fate has been sealed and there is nothing you can do. Leave here before we strike you with our rot. Agiti, what are you doing here?
Please, we just need little water to swim. He is not who you think he is.
Stand up. I have strength to hold them.
Take fuel it and give it to him to drink.
Ah, where am I?
Who are you? I am I a slave from your father. I brought you to the forest of Aumi to e you from your affliction. And as you can see, you are ill.
>> What happened to me?
I can't remember anything.
>> We don't have much time.
We have to go before the evil spirits we appear right here.
>> Speak.
>> Are we still following the same way we came?
>> No, we are taking different routes.
>> Who are you talking to?
>> You will not understand. We need to leave here.
Is anybody here? No. Please, we need to leave.
>> What you What you wait?
I am back and I am healthy.
>> I'm well now. Father, >> it's my son.

You're no longer a slave anywhere.
Henceforth, you become the head of slaves in this compound.

You wanted to serve me.
The chance is there now.

>> I see.
I noticed you were speaking to the air.
Who were you talking to?
My chi, she saved you.
She is bound to protect and guide me all through my path of destiny.
I am glad she chose to help me extend my appreciations to her.
>> Okay, no problem. I that's good. Thank you once again son.
Who is getting you angry?
Tell me father while I was down with sickness how many times did Ola come visit me.
Hola once once while I was bedridding for weeks.

Women.
How unpredictable they could get.
Chief, what is it?
Chief, our buyers are on demand and we do not have much slaves to sell to them.
What do we do, Chief?
What about our partners?
The people that supply us.
Have you put on any demands on them?
We already did that, chief. They don't have much slaves, so they refuse to sell to us.
Kga.
>> Yes, chief.
>> They refuse to sell.
Then we move and take them by force.
Gather our men.
Move into the villages.
Move into the neighboring towns.
Get young men, young boys, young adults.

PLEASE, CHIEF. Dear my sisters, they shouldn't be here.
Okay.
Do I need to remind you that it was the mother of those girls who sold you to me for free?
Free.
She refused to take any money on you.
Don't you think that with what is happening that is the girls being cut by my man means that your cheat is very strong and that the woman is getting paid back in her own coins.
I understand fully we chief but my conscience can be free seeing my sisters in chain.
I know my stepmother maltreated me badly but not them.
They are innocent.
Please chief pardon them.
No, no, I won't do it.
Those girls are now commodities and will be treated as such. They are merchandise.
I'll need to sell them to make my money.
Yes.
Please, Chief, return to your chamber.
There is no amount of pleading that will move my heart.
I've made up my mind.
Why do you hate me this much?
Hold it.

>> I am troubled.
I can't hide it.
>> Talk to me.
My sisters were forcefully adopted by your men.
I went to meet the chief. I pleaded but he refused.
Your sisters are here.
Why would he refuse your request after everything you've done?
That is not fair.
Do not worry yourself. I will see what I can do.
>> I really appreciate. Thank you so much.
>> No, we should be the one thanking you.
Come and take me to your sisters so I can identify them.
>> All right. This way.

Many will believe you.
But many are destined to frustrate you.
But be focus and my sister.
This is Aguba, the chief son.
>> What is your name?
>> Ephedora.
Ephedora will speak to my father to let you maidens go.
I am forever indeped to your brother.
>> We will do our best to get you out from here.
>> Thank you.

Get back to your seat.

>> You couldn't find them. HEY, we tried our best.
>> We tried our best.

Go to neighboring villages and searched everywhere >> with all the money I paid you. If you want more money, I will give no I cannot lose my children.
We went as far as the the borders. We searched everywhere. We couldn't find them.
>> I know you'll be wondering why I brought you here.
>> Yes, I am.
>> Don't be scared. I mean no harm.
>> From the moment I set my eyes on you, I've never been the same.
My heart burns with a cool flame and I cannot help it but to let you know how I feel inside.
I know it sounds weird due to the timing.
Please, all I want is to be free with my sister. We want to go back and meet our mother. Please set us free.
>> I understand.
I assure you, you'll be free again.
>> Um, I'm sorry to ask, but what did my brother do to have someone like you to be indeped to him?
>> It's a long story.
>> Would you want to hear it?
if you permit me.
>> It all started the day I >> I went to purchase slaves from a neighboring village.
>> Do do you know do you know the village came from?
>> Name is we did not Never mind.
NEVER MIND. I'm so sorry. NEVER MIND.
NEVER MIND.
I had a conversation with your sister Ephie and she told me something she's a bit afraid to tell you.
What is it?
>> You should go to them. They are in the best position to tell you everything.
But that is not the reason I called you.
I want to let you know between you and I, I have fallen in love with Epheda, your sister.
>> Oh, that is good. Yes.
I want to let you know first and seek for your support.
If is a wonderful young lady. I have no objections.
Really?
>> None.
Is less for her to accept your proposal.
>> Very well then. I will see to that.
Thank you very much. It means a lot to me. But you have to go and see her. She really has something to tell you that you need to know.
>> All right.
What am I leaving for? What?
Everyone is gone.
Everyone is God. Everyone.
Everyone.
Everyone is calling.
Everyone is gone. What am I living for?
My life is shattered.
Wherever you are, I am coming. Please, wherever you are, receive me. I cannot live in this compound alone.
I brought this upon myself. I brought this upon myself. I'm wrong.
I heard you have something to tell me.
What is it?
>> This might make you hate me and my sister, but I have to tell you the truth.
>> What truth?
>> It is about your inheritance.
Everything our father owned before he died rightfully belongs to you. You inherited all of it.
My mother couldn't bear the fact that you were not her son.
So she planned to get rid of you and thus everything including the lance and the compound is yours.
She told us about it and we hated you as well and we we plan to get rid of you as well. Please forgive us. We are really sorry. I just had to tell you everything because I couldn't bear the gift anymore. Please, I've forgiven you. But I have a news for you.
>> What news?
>> Your mother is dead.
>> What?
>> Calm down.
>> How?
>> Calm down. when it's okay.
It's okay.
It's okay.
Father, I found love in the eyes of a maiden.
A maiden?
Yes. Who is the maiden?
Let me be specific.
A slave.
No, son.
Why would you go that low?
Why?
There are maidens, I mean freeborns all over the kingdom.
It is where my heart chose, father. It is not my fault.
What is the name of this maiden?
>> Her name is Epheda.
She's a sister to E, the one who made your son well and alive today.
Father, please, I demand the release of this maiden and her sister.
Is this a plan or a coincidence?
It is fate.
Father, I call it fate.
Please set the woman who stole my heart free.
Let her and her sister go.
This would make me happy.
Thank you.
Thank you for setting my sister and I free even though we don't deserve it.
That's the least I could do to prove my love for you.
is I really love you and I want to spend the rest of my life with you.
I believe in destiny and I'm ass sure this is destiny.
>> Are you sure I'm the kind of woman you need in your life?
You heard what I, my sister, my mother did to Ek. I'm not a good person.
>> Nobody is perfect. Neither am I also entirely a good person. But we can both perfect our imperfections if we come together.
Really?
>> Yes.
>> So, I'm so happy to see you again.
Thanks to God for bringing you safely back to your father's land. I'm so happy.
This shows that despite everything you have been through that you're really destined for greatness.
Thank you papa. What about my stepmother?
I want her to know that her daughter as she was found dead few days ago. She took her own life.
>> Cost of our land. No.
Yes, my son. It's true.
It's a taboo in our kingdom for anybody to take their life. So, she was thrown into the evil forest. She was not buried.
You don't need to waste your tears.
She never meant well for you.
Um, the only thing I have to do now is to show you the properties your late father left for you, which is supposed to show you before now, but she didn't.
So, I will take you around to show you the inheritance community. I greet you.
>> I greet all of you.
>> We greet you.
I am happy today and I welcome you to my house each and every one of you.
Today is a great day.
Today is a day I have declared that you will drink, you will eat, you will make merry I welcome all of you to my house. I feel elated today because today I have my son here and my son has beside him a pretty a pretty damn cell.
The woman he has been searching all this while today he has seen her.
This is the marriage of my son to his own heart drop.
My this union is going to be a union that will be happy today. We'll be happy tomorrow. We'll be happy here after this union is going to be fruitful.
I bless you my son.
>> Thank you father.
>> I bless the lady beside you.
Yeah.
>> Miuan.
Yeah, sir.
DK, I just bought you from the chief.
It's a lie.
Are you serious?
Thank you.
>> Thank you.
Thank you. Thank you.
>> Wait.
>> That means I'm your slave now.
>> You are no longer a property of the chief.
I declare you a free man. Go and meet Adana now before it is too late.
Come here.
Calm down. Calm down.
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you so much.
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
