Watch him miss.
Such a sharp spear!

- I just made it.
- You made it now?

There we go.
Now it's short like your penis.

No. Let me go!

Makhedama, why are you
doing this to me?

What are you going to do to us?

Mm?

Your heart is consumed
by anger.

You thirst for revenge.

Stoke the fire that rages
in your heart.

He'll always be a wimp
hanging on his mother's skirt,

or on his mother's back.

That thing will never rule.
He will never be King.

# How the mighty ♪
♪ Have fallen ♪

- ♪ Picking up dung ♪
- Look at him.

He's leaving.

I know what the Queen
has sacrificed for me.

I swear that it won't be in vain.

I'll bring back your dignity
and honour.

This is my oath.

Look at the
iZichwe regiment.

As of today,
I appoint you their chief.

- Lead a regiment?
- It is so,

warrior who surpasses other warriors.

We direct our attention
to eLangeni.

Has a messenger been
sent to their King, Makhedama?

Greetings,
descendant of Mbhengi.

We bring a message
from King Dingiswayo.

Makhedama isn't a man
you can trust.

He's a snake.

Word is, Dingiswayo

wants Makhedama to pledge
loyalty to the Mthethwa.

Makhedama will never
agree to that.

He will come to us for support.

We'll give him one regiment
and let his people fight our war.

Everything is in order, Mkhatshwa.

My King.

Mkhatshwa.

Soshangane, son.

Good timing. Have something to eat.

No thank you, Mkhatshwa.

I've already eaten
with the men outside.

What is it?

Mkhatshwa, there's a
message from Makhedama of eLangeni.

They say he's asking
for military aid.

Bring Makhedama to me.

Tell him to come urgently because
his enemy is our enemy.

Mkhatshwa.

And so it begins.

Despite people's
cautions,

Shaka remained Dingiswayo's
trusted one.

- Good one, Sigidi.
- Great Nyambose.

Take this.

My King.

This is equivalent to two cattle.

Mm, I know.

Great Nyambose.

Congratulations,
warrior who surpasses other warriors.

I'm happy for you.

As Shaka's younger brother,
Ngwadi, grew up,

they became close friends.

Remember what I said?

What did I say?

- What did you say?
- Bring the enemy to where

you can defeat them.

Goodness!

Did you get this from the palace?

This is heavy.

Mhlongo, of eLangeni!

Welcome.

- I am--
- Easy, Granny, easy.

We all know who you are.
Right men?

This is the famous witch, Ntombazi.

We thought we'd be received
by the King.

Yet, here we are before you.

While you're still thinking,

get us some beer.

And also get us meat, a lot of it.

When will I get a chance
to join your warriors?

Don't rush, my brother.

Patience is one of the qualities
of a good warrior.

- Understood?
- Yes I understand.

Listen...

- What?
- It's her.

She has a sweet voice.

And she's beautiful.

Shaka, this is what you
should do,

go and talk to her.

Make her give you her
chastity beads.

One day you'll get married.
Imagine marrying her.

Easy, brother.

I don't have time for women.

You've come to the expert now.

- This is nothing.
- You're an expert?

Can't you see?
Let me tell you.

When you get to her,
humble yourself.

Introduce yourself and profess
your love to her.

That one, I can tell,

she's the kind of girl who likes
being sweet talked.

Then take her hand,

touch her chin and bring
her closer...

What are you doing?
Stop it.

You still have a lot to
learn from me.

Behave boy, in fact go.

- You're dismissing me?
- I'm dismissing you.

Alright.

What are you laughing at?

Just look how
beautiful she is.

The girl you're staring at
has many admirers.

If you don't have the courage
to approach her,

you'll lose out.

- Vundlazi.
- Wait.

- Somveli.
- You have to speak to her.

- Please come here.
- Somveli, what are you doing?

- You should speak to her.
- Stop that.

- Greetings.
- Greetings, lady.

Yes.

This man wants to say something.

I heard you're the most
fearless man,

amongst all the men here
at the Mthethwa.

I'm fearless in battle but,

it looks like I'm shy now.

You're shy?
What are you shy about?

He's shy to express his
feelings to you.

Easy.

Give us some privacy.

Those are beautiful beads.

Next time you go
to collect firewood,

I would--

I'd be happy to accompany you.

I'd love that, Ndabezitha.

Dingiswayo...

acts as if he's in charge
South of iMfolozi.

So, you...

should help me when I go
into battle with him.

Well...

your ancestors must be
smiling at you.

Because Dingiswayo and I
have a score to settle.

What if while we sit here,

we hear that Makhedama and Zwide,

have teamed up?

Great Nyambose,
I'll send men to ensure

Makhedama submits to the Mthethwa.

- You want to lead the regiment now?
- Here you go again.

- Where's my stick?
- Gentlemen, calm down.

Buza, sit down, you can't stand
in front of the King.

What are you doing?

Towering above the King?

You should be fined for this.

- Apologies, Nyambose.
- Mm.

We are in council, Buza.

And Shaka,

is a member of the council.

Nyambose, I ask that you
leave my cousin to me.

Go well, Cija.

I want you to slaughter them...

- in the South.
- It will be so, Ndwandwe.

Trust me.

You're making a mistake, Ndwandwe.

You're supporting a barbarian.

Makhedama is an honest leader.

I hear you.

So you're not bothered by
what he said about me?

I heard he called you a witch.

You look like a killer of men.

That's right, lady.

But I only kill men who
stand in my way.

What's this madness?

We're preparing for war,

not a party!

Get out of my way.

Tell me,

are these men ready for war?

Are you nervous of the
Mthethwa cowards?

They think we're coming to talk.

They think we'll sit down and chat.

What we'll do,

we'll start with their messengers.

Finish them off.

After that, we enter every house.

Slaughter everything.

We'll leave nothing alive.

- Isn't that right, men?
- That's right.

We'll see.

Looks can be deceiving.
This thing is a coward.

Makhedama will be shocked to see you
leading the Mthethwa regiment.

He'll only hate me more.

- Don't forget that--
- Nyambose.

Son.

Excuse me, Nyambose.

- And thank you for the meal.
- You're free to go, Sigidi.

He eats with you regularly?

Yes.

You've been scarce lately.

Because the King forgets to
invite me like the others.

I invite you then.

Here's some food.

Come sit next to me and eat.

- You could swear that--
- Who are you talking to, standing?

I said sit down!

Nyambose.

You'd swear Shaka
is your son.

Why am I not chief
of a regiment yet?

If you can humble yourself,
you'd learn a lot from Shaka.

In brief, the King is saying
the Mthethwa heir

must learn from a foreigner?

That foreigner has been through
a lot to get to where he is.

Same as when I was in exile.

Is the King suggesting
I grew up easily?

I lost a father.

The one I admired.

As a child, I had to learn
to live without him.

I grew up painfully.

People insulting me.

Calling me a traitor's son.

I feel...

like a foreigner in my own home.

Son...

Makhedama is a trickster.

We should expect anything.

- Men.
- Chief.

If you anticipate trouble,
son of Senzangakhona,

we must take more men.

I don't know about difficulty,
but trickery we can expect.

- Is this personal to you?
- Yes, Chief, this is very personal.

I'd like to accompany iZichwe
to face Makhedama.

- Does the Chief not trust me?
- No, that's not the reason.

I want to bear witness
to your success.

I promise to follow
your instructions.

If that's the case,
you can join us, Chief.

Alright then.
Let me go prepare.

Chief.

I also need to prepare.

I'm rushing somewhere.

Where are you going, Shaka?

See these? I'm going to give them
to the most beautiful girl.

- Chief.
- Greetings.

Our hero didn't always win.

Shaka couldn't easily
accept defeat.

Move, don't play around!

This is the army.

Somveli, what nonsense is this?

Leave me, Shaka, I'm tired.

Don't call me Shaka,
I'm your Chief.

Somveli, I'm talking to you.

You're weak.
You're not ready for battle.

- Greetings, Queen.
- Mlilwana.

You're so thin,
don't you eat at the camp?

I've heard.

It's true.

Queen,

I'd like to pass this onto you.

Hear me clearly.

Destroy them.

- Understand?
- I won't disappoint you.

Great Nyambose.

Sigidi.

Go well.

You're a son to me.

Ngomane will accompany you
and help strengthen your forces.

Great Nyambose. I'll be honoured.

My King.

- Speak.
- They outnumber us.

Amongst them are Ndwandwe warriors.

There's three hundred of them.

As I said, he's a trickster.

Maybe we should retreat,
and come back with more men.

We won't flee like cowards.

Forward, we march.

They're over there,
behind that hill.

Men.

Their army is three times
more than ours.

This means every man must kill
three of them for us to win.

We won't launch spears today,
for that would be a waste.

Do you see my short spear?

Every man should break his spear
to be as short as mine.

Sigidi.

Are you sure about this?

Trust me. I know what I'm doing.

Men, do as Sigidi says.

I need twenty men.

Mgobhozi, Ncoboka, come closer.

- Sigidi.
- You know what to do.

Sigidi.

Chief...

let's advance.

Whoa.
Son of Senzangakhona,

looks like we're walking
into a trap here.

Makhedama!

It's me, Shaka,
son of Senzangakhona.

Do you agree to pledge loyalty
to the Mthethwa?

Hey, Little Dick.

You think we came all this way
just to stare at you?

I'm going to kill you today.

Let's meet and negotiate as planned.

Kill me if you want.

But I'll be unarmed.

One man against a hundred.

If that's how you want to
be remembered then kill me.

These are my weapons.

I'm putting them down.

Let me go stab the fool.

Hello, Little Dick.

Is this you?

Guys, this is Little Dick.

When you get a chance ask your leader
why we call him Little Dick.

If you don't want to explain
just show them.

Open here so they can all see.

Makhedama.

If you want to live,

you'll pledge your loyalty
to King Dingiswayo today.

And eLangeni people will
apologise to my mother.

Gentlemen, your silence tells me

you didn't hear what
Little Dick said.

Little Dick says...

we...

must pledge our loyalty
to Dingiswayo.

And then apologise to the
biggest disgrace of eLangeni.

He's crazy.

That will be your mother.

When you look at me,

am I pledging my loyalty?

Very well.
Then your men will die.

After that I'll kill you.

The one who'll
die here... is you,

and those fat fools over there.

When I get to the peak
of that hill--

When you get to the peak
of that hill,

you'll run, like you always do.

Like you did at eLangeni.

You and your mother.

Run now, boy.

Run.

Very well.

Chief.

- I don't think we'll win this battle.
- We will.

We won't launch spears.

We'll go for close combat.

Makhedama!

Do you pledge your loyalty?

Go tell your mother...

I said she must come pledge
her loyalty here.

Attack!

Halt!

Collect!

Close!

Forward!

Shields up!

Launch!

To the left!

You're misfiring.

Let's go again. Don't miss!

To the right!

Forward!

Come on men, kill them!

Launch!

There's a regiment coming
from this side.

Watch out for them.

Another one that side!

Kill them!

- Stand your ground.
- Take the fight to them.

Stand your ground!

Split up!

Where is Makhedama?

He ran.

You won't die today.
It's not your time.

Somebody get medicine
and save this man.

Once you recover, return home

and tell your King of what
you witnessed here.

Tell him about the danger of
interfering south of the iMfolozi.

The last time I saw these
men, I was just a little boy.

We were pretending to be hunters.

Throwing sticks at little balls.

Brother.

We trained ourselves as boys.

Mgobhozi, my brother.

We were still short. We couldn't even
see over the top of the fence.

I could hear melodies,
of their mothers singing.

And they sang like this...

♪ From your mother's back ♪

# You fell ♪

♪ You fell... ♪

and it sounded like this...

♪ Picking up cow dung ♪

♪ You fell ♪

On the ground!

Sikhumba, do you remember the
loud laughter at Mlovini,

mocking my mother?

Do you remember beating me up,

tying me to a tree.

leaving me so that...

I'd be food for jackals?

The bully who was behind
all of this is your King today.

A useless dog of a King
who left his army behind...

and ran away.

Now all his crimes
and your mothers'...

are on your shoulders.

♪ From your mother's back ♪

Look at me carefully.

Do you still see Little Dick?

I'm sorry.

Forgive us, Zulu.

I'm not here to forgive.

I'm here to make things right.

Shaka.

- Let's have a chat.
- Not now, son of Mqomboli.

We'll talk back at home.

I'm still chatting to people
of eLangeni.

♪ You fell... ♪

♪ Your mother's back ♪

- Mgobhozi, Ncoboka.
- Sigidi.

♪ Your mother's back ♪

What did you think
was going to happen?

Reports say Ngomane
tried to stop him,

but he wouldn't listen.

He broke Mthethwa military
protocol, Nyambose.

He killed men after
they'd surrendered.

He delivered a victory when
defeat looked certain.

He's enraged. He's dangerous.

He has a thirst for revenge.

That's true. Growing up in exile
can do that to you.

If anyone is to blame,
the finger must point at me.

- Buza.
- Nyambose.

Prepare a ceremony to welcome Shaka
and his troops as heroes.

Indeed MaMhlongo...

you raised a brave hero in Sigidi.

- Nyambose!
- Nyambose!

- Nyambose!
- Nyambose!

Your army has returned,
great Nyambose.

Did you hear the cheers, Sigidi?

They're for you.

Men.

We are what we are because
of the great Nyambose.

Today you witnessed results
of following my instructions

as your commander.

And the results of training.

Great King, I request that
my mother steps forward.

The one that made me a man.
Here she is.

My mother.

I say to you, go home
and celebrate your Queens,

like I celebrate mine.

Daughter of Mbhengi. MaMhlongo.

Shaka had grown up
to become Nandi's shield.

The flames of her little fire
turned into a wildfire.
