00:00:14,700 --> 00:00:17,671
- [Narrator] This is Calabar City today.
6
00:00:17,671 --> 00:00:22,671
144 years ago in 1876,
this city and its environs
7
00:00:24,180 --> 00:00:26,950
was a different world of superstition
8
00:00:26,950 --> 00:00:31,950
and barbaric practices, until
a bold Scottish missionary
9
00:00:32,075 --> 00:00:37,075
named Mary Slessor arrived
in the land in the same year.
10
00:00:38,620 --> 00:00:41,780
Mary's mission to change
the world she found there
11
00:00:41,780 --> 00:00:45,463
lasted for close to 40 years.
12
00:00:46,420 --> 00:00:51,420
In the late 1876 to 1915, Mary Slessor,
13
00:00:52,450 --> 00:00:55,120
a Scottish Christian missionary, lived
14
00:00:55,120 --> 00:00:57,610
in south eastern Nigeria, where she
15
00:00:57,610 --> 00:01:00,440
carried out missionary work.
16
00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:05,440
Mary lived among African
tribes that murdered twins.
17
00:01:05,690 --> 00:01:08,810
They believed that one of
the infants was fathered
18
00:01:08,810 --> 00:01:09,703
by the devil.
19
00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:12,740
As it was not known which of the infants
20
00:01:12,740 --> 00:01:17,023
was the devil's child,
both were condemned to die.
21
00:01:18,550 --> 00:01:22,080
The kids were usually forcibly
taken from their mothers
22
00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:25,630
and thrown away in the
forest and left to die,
23
00:01:25,630 --> 00:01:29,720
either from the elements
or eaten by wild animals.
24
00:01:32,300 --> 00:01:35,950
Mary crusaded against
this practice and rescued
25
00:01:35,950 --> 00:01:37,623
hundreds of twins.
26
00:01:38,860 --> 00:01:41,573
She adopted nine herself.
27
00:01:43,927 --> 00:01:47,440
"The Twins Killing
Forests" is an adaptation
28
00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:51,483
of Mary's work to stop the cruel practice.
29
00:01:55,168 --> 00:01:57,751

child, pass away, evil child.

Pass away, evil child.
38
00:05:33,112 --> 00:05:34,445
Pass away evil child.
39
00:05:34,445 --> 00:05:35,461
Pass away, evil child.
40
00:05:35,461 --> 00:05:36,682

- Get him down.
50
00:07:20,250 --> 00:07:22,233
Give me your machete.
51
00:07:22,233 --> 00:07:24,227
In the bush. Bush, bush.

we're taking down to the big
boat to the white man country.
59

- You're right.
60
00:07:57,971 --> 00:07:59,873
- I'm happy he is unconscious.
61

Nobody can see the kingdom
of God unless they repent
71

their sins and stop pagan worship.
72
00:08:51,870 --> 00:08:55,990

never agree to come with us

eyes and see that Jesus
92

He loves everybody.
102
00:10:27,270 --> 00:10:29,563
That's why he died on
the cross for our sins.

There is no essence staying here.

- Yes.
135
00:12:59,041 --> 00:13:00,836
- For killing one of our own.
136
00:13:00,836 --> 00:13:02,310
- We must fight.
137
00:13:02,310 --> 00:13:06,071
- Because he was returning
from the market in Akpet,
138
00:13:06,071 --> 00:13:08,283
they seized the opportunity to kill him.
139
00:13:10,432 --> 00:13:11,850
We will teach the people

Yes.

being hatched by Nsan people.
158
00:14:44,596 --> 00:14:47,057
One of their kinsman who was killed here
159
00:14:48,330 --> 00:14:51,443
and thrown into the river was a thief.
160
00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:57,320
Yes! He stole cassava from
one of our cassava farms.
161
00:14:59,660 --> 00:15:04,063

need heads for our shrine.

And the head of those stupid Nsan people
163
00:15:07,900 --> 00:15:09,801
will be good for the shrine.

00:15:23,790 --> 00:15:26,083
yes and wait for them.
169
00:15:27,501 --> 00:15:28,334
- [Man] You are right.
170
00:15:28,334 --> 00:15:29,913

171
00:15:31,100 --> 00:15:33,767

No weapon shall pierce or touch you,
178
00:16:38,570 --> 00:16:42,240
as you take the fight to those wicked men.
179
00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:44,323
You will go and you will come back alive.
180
00:16:45,509 --> 00:16:50,197
Now, this night, go home,
sleep well but keep away
181
00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:52,793

182
00:16:54,047 --> 00:16:58,316
Tomorrow, you go in confidence
and bring us the victory.
183
00:16:58,316 --> 00:17:02,649
(man speaking in foreign language)
184
00:17:03,647 --> 00:17:04,480
Let's go.
185
00:17:05,355 --> 00:17:07,438
You may go in confidence.
186
00:17:08,338 --> 00:17:10,921
(upbeat music)
187
00:17:19,527 --> 00:17:22,110
(upbeat music)
188
00:18:31,681 --> 00:18:34,098
(men chants)
189
00:18:35,643 --> 00:18:37,779
(men thudding)
190
00:18:37,779 --> 00:18:40,362
(upbeat music)
191
00:19:25,243 --> 00:19:26,660
- [Man] Who else?
192
00:19:26,660 --> 00:19:29,243
(upbeat music)
193
00:19:30,113 --> 00:19:32,696
(men thudding)
194
00:19:39,249 --> 00:19:40,406
- Great warriors!
195
00:19:40,406 --> 00:19:41,784
- [Group] Great.
196
00:19:41,784 --> 00:19:45,594
- May the gods be praised
for giving us victory.
197
00:19:45,594 --> 00:19:46,427
- Yes.
198
00:19:49,654 --> 00:19:51,241
- This is their leader.
199
00:19:51,241 --> 00:19:52,894
- [Man] I see.
200
00:19:52,894 --> 00:19:57,144
(man speaking in foreign language)
201
00:19:59,419 --> 00:20:03,669
- We have come to give you
this one for you to use.
202
00:20:08,510 --> 00:20:11,927
- Leave him here. I will deal with him.
203
00:20:16,555 --> 00:20:20,070
(man speaking in foreign language)
204
00:20:20,070 --> 00:20:21,285
Great warriors.
205
00:20:21,285 --> 00:20:22,400
- Great.
206
00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:26,915
- You can now go home
and enjoy your wives.
207
00:20:26,915 --> 00:20:30,094
(men laughing)
208
00:20:30,094 --> 00:20:34,344
(man speaking in foreign language)
209
00:20:37,040 --> 00:20:38,630
- So Victoria.
210
00:20:38,630 --> 00:20:39,490
- Yes.
211
00:20:39,490 --> 00:20:42,260
- They've tried to take
away your twins from you?
212
00:20:42,260 --> 00:20:43,700
- They tried ma.
213
00:20:43,700 --> 00:20:46,290
I told them I am a
Christian, and they beat I
214
00:20:46,290 --> 00:20:47,760
and my husband up.
215
00:20:47,760 --> 00:20:50,210
They even tried to snatch
the twins away from us.
216
00:20:51,664 --> 00:20:54,470
- They almost broke my head
when I wanted to run away
217
00:20:54,470 --> 00:20:55,637
with the boys.
218
00:20:56,640 --> 00:20:58,860
Please ma, you must help me protect them.
219
00:20:59,910 --> 00:21:02,590
They will soon be here.
Don't let them take my boys.
220
00:21:02,590 --> 00:21:03,423
Please!
221
00:21:04,313 --> 00:21:06,600
- Essien, You can count on me on that.
222
00:21:07,750 --> 00:21:08,943
They are going nowhere.
223
00:21:10,810 --> 00:21:13,886
I've preached many times
against this evil custom,
224
00:21:13,886 --> 00:21:15,870
but it still persists.
225
00:21:15,870 --> 00:21:19,180
Children are gifts from God,
no matter if they come in ones
226
00:21:19,180 --> 00:21:20,543
or twos as twins.
227
00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:23,304
This evil must stop.
228
00:21:23,304 --> 00:21:25,887
(upbeat music)
229
00:21:34,500 --> 00:21:37,963
- There was a twin birth
in this village yesterday.
230
00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:42,440
We must go now and seize them.
231
00:21:44,166 --> 00:21:48,123
- It is our duty as the
youth of this community
232
00:21:48,123 --> 00:21:50,690
to protect our custom and tradition.
233
00:21:50,690 --> 00:21:55,114
- You are right, but I
hope that white woman will
234
00:21:55,114 --> 00:21:57,674
not be there to frustrate us.
235
00:21:57,674 --> 00:22:02,674
Lately she has been showing up
herself to take the children.
236
00:22:03,173 --> 00:22:05,756
See, we might have to kill her.
237
00:22:09,382 --> 00:22:11,870
- If she dares us this time.
238
00:22:11,870 --> 00:22:16,123
If she tries us this time, we
won't hesitate to kill her.
239
00:22:19,483 --> 00:22:23,220
- We can't have a stranger
come here to destroy
240
00:22:23,220 --> 00:22:24,720
our custom and tradition.
241
00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:26,253
- Never.
242
00:22:26,253 --> 00:22:29,771
- A woman for that matter! Never!
243
00:22:29,771 --> 00:22:30,938
- [Man] Never.
244
00:22:35,474 --> 00:22:36,579
- Edet.
245
00:22:36,579 --> 00:22:40,675
♪ A wicked world a
world of culture abuse ♪
246
00:22:40,675 --> 00:22:41,508
- Yes.
247
00:22:48,064 --> 00:22:50,713
- Ema, Ema please pull yourself together.
248
00:22:52,010 --> 00:22:54,930
The warriors are already
close here to take our twins
249
00:22:54,930 --> 00:22:56,333
away from us.
250
00:22:56,333 --> 00:22:57,166
Please.
251
00:22:57,166 --> 00:22:59,812
- I don't want anything
to happen to my children.
252
00:22:59,812 --> 00:23:03,620
- Ema, nothing will
happen to our children.
253
00:23:03,620 --> 00:23:05,053
Just listen to me.
254
00:23:05,053 --> 00:23:07,632
Listen, I want you to take
them across the river.
255
00:23:07,632 --> 00:23:09,150
I will come and meet you there.
256
00:23:09,150 --> 00:23:10,065
Do you understand!
257
00:23:10,065 --> 00:23:11,273
- Okay.
258
00:23:11,273 --> 00:23:13,834
- Ema go. Just go, go now.
259
00:23:13,834 --> 00:23:17,296
(dramatic music)
260
00:23:17,296 --> 00:23:18,379
- [Man] Nsuk.
261
00:23:20,954 --> 00:23:22,109
Nsuk.
262
00:23:22,109 --> 00:23:23,327
- Let them come, I'm
waiting for them here.
263
00:23:23,327 --> 00:23:25,630
They will kill me first before taking
264
00:23:25,630 --> 00:23:26,880
my children away from me.
265
00:23:27,800 --> 00:23:29,513
- Go there and bring them out.
266
00:23:30,580 --> 00:23:33,870
- Why are you shouting
my name like a mad man?
267
00:23:35,752 --> 00:23:37,633
- Etim, a mad man?
268
00:23:37,633 --> 00:23:38,883
- You heard me.
269
00:23:40,548 --> 00:23:42,100
- Where are the twins?
270
00:23:42,100 --> 00:23:44,150
- What twins are you talking about, Etim?
271
00:23:45,746 --> 00:23:47,628
- I can see movement from the back.
272
00:23:47,628 --> 00:23:48,466
- Where?
273
00:23:48,466 --> 00:23:49,550
- From the back.
- Who?
274
00:23:49,550 --> 00:23:51,808
- I can see a woman with the babies.
275
00:23:51,808 --> 00:23:53,186
- Go after them immediately.
276
00:23:53,186 --> 00:23:54,072
Go, go. Go.
277
00:23:54,072 --> 00:23:55,966
- You have to kill me before
you take away my child.
278
00:23:55,966 --> 00:23:57,133
- Get him down. Get him down.
279
00:23:58,037 --> 00:23:59,704
Where are the twins?
280
00:24:00,759 --> 00:24:01,669
- My babies.
281
00:24:01,669 --> 00:24:02,802
- Where are the twins?
282
00:24:02,802 --> 00:24:03,635
Where are the twins?
283
00:24:03,635 --> 00:24:04,468
How dare you.
284
00:24:04,468 --> 00:24:05,327
- You are wicked.
285
00:24:05,327 --> 00:24:08,156
- You called me, Etim, a mad man!
286
00:24:08,156 --> 00:24:11,573
Where are the twins? Where are the twins?
287
00:24:13,730 --> 00:24:16,480
(dramatic music)
288
00:24:37,334 --> 00:24:39,917
(upbeat music)
289
00:24:43,095 --> 00:24:47,428
(woman singing in foreign language)
290
00:25:18,647 --> 00:25:22,897
(man speaking in foreign language)
291
00:25:29,443 --> 00:25:34,410
- Oh gods of our land, how
long shall this continue?
292
00:25:34,410 --> 00:25:39,310
How long shall we allow
foreigners come into our land
293
00:25:39,310 --> 00:25:44,097
to desecrate our tradition,
turning down our customs
294
00:25:45,340 --> 00:25:46,790
with foreign ideas?
295
00:25:46,790 --> 00:25:49,300
How long? How long?
296
00:25:49,300 --> 00:25:50,453
How long?
297
00:25:55,209 --> 00:25:58,158
- [Etim] The chief priest of our land.
298
00:25:58,158 --> 00:26:00,110
(men speaking in foreign language)
299
00:26:00,110 --> 00:26:04,306
- Youths of our land, you're welcome.
300
00:26:04,306 --> 00:26:05,969
Please come in.
301
00:26:05,969 --> 00:26:08,636
(ominous music)
302
00:26:14,097 --> 00:26:15,163
Please sit down.
303
00:26:16,219 --> 00:26:18,886
(ominous music)
304
00:26:35,450 --> 00:26:36,790
I know why you are here.
305
00:26:38,049 --> 00:26:41,540
I am also as worried as you are.
306
00:26:41,540 --> 00:26:46,540
This white witch is testing us.
She is testing our strength.
307
00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:49,783
I have asked the gods to kill her, yes.
308
00:26:52,184 --> 00:26:54,410
This is our land.
309
00:26:54,410 --> 00:26:57,218
She cannot come from
her country to tell us
310
00:26:57,218 --> 00:26:59,310
what to do in our land.
311
00:26:59,310 --> 00:27:01,780
- Did you hear that?
312
00:27:01,780 --> 00:27:04,077
(man speaking in foreign language)
313
00:27:04,077 --> 00:27:06,303
You see that woman, she is mad.
314
00:27:07,150 --> 00:27:08,063
She is stupid.
315
00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:10,043
She is an idiot.
316
00:27:12,170 --> 00:27:15,230
I will make sure that
we teach her a lesson
317
00:27:15,230 --> 00:27:18,167
that she will never,
ever forget in her life.
318
00:27:19,768 --> 00:27:23,620
- Please, we have to be very careful,
319
00:27:23,620 --> 00:27:25,440
because I know what these
British people can do
320
00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:27,203
to anybody that harms white people.
321
00:27:28,150 --> 00:27:30,580
I have witnessed where they
destroyed a lot of villages
322
00:27:30,580 --> 00:27:33,193
in Igbo land, just to punish such people.
323
00:27:34,226 --> 00:27:36,666
Please, we must be very careful.
324
00:27:36,666 --> 00:27:39,443
- Edet, are you now afraid?
325
00:27:41,998 --> 00:27:45,600
Eye of the gods, as for me,
326
00:27:45,600 --> 00:27:48,500
I will make sure that we take them down
327
00:27:48,500 --> 00:27:52,100
to the last man standing just to preserve
328
00:27:52,100 --> 00:27:53,983
our custom and tradition.
329
00:27:56,430 --> 00:27:58,410
- Yes, Chief Priest,
330
00:27:58,410 --> 00:28:02,057
we must preserve our custom and tradition.
331
00:28:02,057 --> 00:28:05,807
I even heard that she
went and took the twins
332
00:28:07,030 --> 00:28:09,587
that were thrown into the bush,
333
00:28:09,587 --> 00:28:12,036
and they now live with her.
334
00:28:12,036 --> 00:28:13,390
- That is the problem.
335
00:28:13,390 --> 00:28:14,223
- Abomination!
336
00:28:16,870 --> 00:28:21,870
- You all are aware how the
harvests were late last year.
337
00:28:25,720 --> 00:28:29,220
The rains were very poor last year.
338
00:28:29,220 --> 00:28:31,330
It's all because of the presence of
339
00:28:31,330 --> 00:28:34,970
those abominable children
in her place, yes.
340
00:28:38,470 --> 00:28:43,398
We will go to her place,
we will invade there
341
00:28:43,398 --> 00:28:47,810
and we will remove all those
abominable devil children
342
00:28:47,810 --> 00:28:51,377
living with her, so that
our land shall be cleansed.
343
00:28:51,377 --> 00:28:54,794
- Wise one, when are we going to do that?
344
00:28:55,737 --> 00:29:00,154
Because as for me, Etim
Etukudor, I am ready tonight.
345
00:29:02,926 --> 00:29:06,843
(speaking in foreign language)
346
00:29:08,678 --> 00:29:12,806
- Chief Priest, whatever
it's going to take,
347
00:29:12,806 --> 00:29:14,940
we shall be ready to give.
348
00:29:14,940 --> 00:29:15,923
I am ready.
349
00:29:18,260 --> 00:29:21,103
- Edet, you're not saying anything.
350
00:29:22,223 --> 00:29:23,260
(man speaking in foreign language)
351
00:29:23,260 --> 00:29:28,260
- Anyway, I will give
information as to the day
352
00:29:29,590 --> 00:29:32,330
and time of the attack.
353
00:29:32,330 --> 00:29:34,780
Let me commune with the gods.
354
00:29:36,358 --> 00:29:38,858
You may go in peace.
355
00:29:38,858 --> 00:29:40,358
May the day break.
356
00:29:41,249 --> 00:29:43,060
(man speaking in foreign language)
357
00:29:43,060 --> 00:29:45,048
(upbeat music)
358
00:29:45,048 --> 00:29:46,742
- The eye of the gods.
359
00:29:46,742 --> 00:29:47,840
- You may leave now.
360
00:29:47,840 --> 00:29:50,423
(upbeat music)
361
00:30:06,780 --> 00:30:11,400
- Mary, I am very much
concerned about your safety
362
00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:14,160
in the middle of this one-woman revolution
363
00:30:14,160 --> 00:30:19,160
you are leading to stop
the evil twins killing,
364
00:30:19,450 --> 00:30:22,090
in these primitive tribes.
365
00:30:22,090 --> 00:30:27,090
I swear they will all
burn to ashes in hell
366
00:30:27,360 --> 00:30:29,493
for killing God's lovely kids.
367
00:30:31,270 --> 00:30:34,190
- William, they are generally good people.
368
00:30:34,190 --> 00:30:35,893
They will not do any harm to me,
369
00:30:37,450 --> 00:30:42,060
though I have received
reports from these women
370
00:30:42,060 --> 00:30:46,683
of great hostility towards me
by one of the stubborn men.
371
00:30:49,290 --> 00:30:52,850
- Anyway Mary, I will
talk to the British consul
372
00:30:52,850 --> 00:30:55,270
to make arrangements for your protection.
373
00:30:56,630 --> 00:30:59,167
- I don't think that's necessary, William.
374
00:31:00,620 --> 00:31:02,773
- Why? I insist.
375
00:31:04,081 --> 00:31:05,498
- I will be fine.
376
00:31:06,400 --> 00:31:07,913
- Mary, I insist.
377
00:31:10,010 --> 00:31:12,330
We can't afford to lose you.
378
00:31:12,330 --> 00:31:16,781
The missionary work here will suffer
379
00:31:16,781 --> 00:31:18,558
a great loss without you.
380
00:31:18,558 --> 00:31:21,141
(upbeat music)
381
00:31:33,756 --> 00:31:35,440
- [Mary] Good evening!
382
00:31:35,440 --> 00:31:37,770
- [Guards] Good evening Mistress.
383
00:31:37,770 --> 00:31:40,060
- I guess William told the British Consul
384
00:31:40,060 --> 00:31:41,710
to send you here, right?
385
00:31:41,710 --> 00:31:43,177
- [Guards] Yes, Mistress.
386
00:31:44,070 --> 00:31:46,020
- I told him he didn't have to do that.
387
00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:52,400
- Mistress, these people are
wicked people, very stubborn.
388
00:31:54,302 --> 00:31:56,552
Mistress, you need us here.
389
00:31:57,467 --> 00:32:02,060
If anybody should come, we finish them.
390
00:32:02,060 --> 00:32:05,253
- No, no! I want no bloodshed.
391
00:32:06,530 --> 00:32:10,043
- Mistress, we are Adamawa people.
392
00:32:10,043 --> 00:32:13,478
We don't kill our twin children.
393
00:32:13,478 --> 00:32:15,727
These people here do.
394
00:32:15,727 --> 00:32:18,810
If they come here, we will kill them.
395
00:32:19,797 --> 00:32:24,797
- No. I don't want to see
any killing of anybody here.
396
00:32:24,899 --> 00:32:27,597
Christianity forbids that.
397
00:32:27,597 --> 00:32:30,680
- Mistress, as for me, I am a Muslim.
398
00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:34,960
It is an eye for an eye.
399
00:32:36,360 --> 00:32:39,587
If anybody should kill,
the person deserves
400
00:32:39,587 --> 00:32:41,087
to be killed, too.
401
00:32:43,088 --> 00:32:45,350
- I've told you, no killings.
402
00:32:45,350 --> 00:32:47,933
(upbeat music)
403
00:32:58,910 --> 00:33:00,860
- We will invade that house this night.
404
00:33:02,990 --> 00:33:06,007
We will not kill that foolish white woman,
405
00:33:06,852 --> 00:33:10,769
but we will take all the
children in that house
406
00:33:12,038 --> 00:33:14,058
and move off into the night.
407
00:33:14,058 --> 00:33:16,975
- Wise one, please on the contrary,
408
00:33:18,180 --> 00:33:20,540
I suggest we kill this woman,
409
00:33:20,540 --> 00:33:23,080
with that we can get rid
of all these problems
410
00:33:23,080 --> 00:33:24,928
once and for all.
411
00:33:24,928 --> 00:33:27,298
- [Okon] I agree with
you. I agree with you.
412
00:33:27,298 --> 00:33:30,010
- That will be foolishness.
413
00:33:30,010 --> 00:33:32,680
We can't allow what
happened in faraway kingdom
414
00:33:32,680 --> 00:33:34,420
to happen to us.
415
00:33:34,420 --> 00:33:35,603
We have to act smart.
416
00:33:36,950 --> 00:33:39,823
- Chief Priest, he may
be telling us the truth.
417
00:33:42,350 --> 00:33:45,110
I have verified the
authenticity of his claims
418
00:33:46,310 --> 00:33:49,110
and I have found out that he
has been telling the truth.
419
00:33:50,560 --> 00:33:54,179
We do not need to shed blood.
420
00:33:54,179 --> 00:33:59,090
But by this action, after
this action of stealing twins
421
00:33:59,090 --> 00:34:04,090
into the night, we will stop
the white lady's foolishness.
422
00:34:05,327 --> 00:34:10,327
- Listen, I Edet
Ndifreki, I was there when
423
00:34:11,400 --> 00:34:12,613
the attack took place.
424
00:34:15,230 --> 00:34:17,430
The British demanded
that they stop slavery,
425
00:34:18,870 --> 00:34:23,040
but they refused and
fought the British people.
426
00:34:23,040 --> 00:34:26,280
Then what happened at the end,
they destroyed the villages
427
00:34:26,280 --> 00:34:28,949
and killed a lot of them.
428
00:34:28,949 --> 00:34:33,283
Please we can't allow that
to happen to our village.
429
00:34:33,283 --> 00:34:35,773
We can't just watch our
people being killed.
430
00:34:36,960 --> 00:34:39,987
- Stop talking nonsense, young man.
431
00:34:41,120 --> 00:34:44,230
Go and do what you have to do.
432
00:34:44,230 --> 00:34:47,470
It's your duty to protect
the customs and traditions
433
00:34:47,470 --> 00:34:49,200
of our land.
434
00:34:49,200 --> 00:34:50,033
Go.
435
00:34:50,888 --> 00:34:54,400
- Wise one please, I
suggest we kill this woman
436
00:34:54,400 --> 00:34:55,651
once and for all
437
00:34:55,651 --> 00:34:58,022
so we can get rid of all these problems.
438
00:34:58,022 --> 00:34:58,939
- [Man] Go.
439
00:35:07,190 --> 00:35:08,729
- Chief Priest, I know what I'm saying.
440
00:35:08,729 --> 00:35:09,562
- Go.
441
00:35:11,527 --> 00:35:14,444
(cricket chirping)
442
00:35:23,329 --> 00:35:25,996
(ominous music)
443
00:35:28,152 --> 00:35:29,402
- Who is there?
444
00:35:35,363 --> 00:35:36,446
- Stop there.
445
00:35:39,212 --> 00:35:40,129
I say Stop.
446
00:35:46,763 --> 00:35:48,192
- Attack!
447
00:35:48,192 --> 00:35:50,525
(gun fires)
448
00:35:55,190 --> 00:35:57,246
- Why are you running?
449
00:35:57,246 --> 00:35:59,829
(upbeat music)
450
00:36:04,936 --> 00:36:09,269
(woman singing in foreign language)
451
00:36:21,646 --> 00:36:24,396
- My husband, is everything okay?
452
00:36:29,958 --> 00:36:32,691
(finger snapping)
453
00:36:32,691 --> 00:36:37,061
(man speaking in foreign language)
454
00:36:37,061 --> 00:36:38,478
- Nkoyo, my wife!
455
00:36:40,881 --> 00:36:41,781
- Yes.
456
00:36:41,781 --> 00:36:45,003
- Do you know I almost
got killed yesterday
457
00:36:45,003 --> 00:36:47,330
at that white woman's house?
458
00:36:47,330 --> 00:36:50,100
- What! What did you go there to do?
459
00:36:50,100 --> 00:36:51,680
- What else?
460
00:36:51,680 --> 00:36:53,720
We went to invade her house
461
00:36:53,720 --> 00:36:55,820
so that we can pick the evil twins
462
00:36:55,820 --> 00:36:58,423
that she kept in her house.
463
00:36:59,500 --> 00:37:04,433
- But, my husband, I attended
this church just last week,
464
00:37:05,509 --> 00:37:06,767
and I was made to understand that
465
00:37:06,767 --> 00:37:08,879
killing of innocent children is a sin.
466
00:37:08,879 --> 00:37:09,712
- What!
467
00:37:11,857 --> 00:37:14,274
Nkoyo, what did you just say?
468
00:37:15,364 --> 00:37:19,933
Wait! You went to that woman's
church without my permission.
469
00:37:23,116 --> 00:37:25,449
Huh! Now I know, now I know.
470
00:37:30,730 --> 00:37:34,060
She has inculcated nonsense
into your head, Nkoyo!
471
00:37:34,060 --> 00:37:36,763
- No one has inculcated
nonsense into my head.
472
00:37:38,090 --> 00:37:40,980
My husband, this church preaches about
473
00:37:40,980 --> 00:37:43,487
a man called Jesus Christ.
474
00:37:43,487 --> 00:37:45,043
He is the savior of the world.
475
00:37:45,955 --> 00:37:48,860
And you won't make heaven
if you don't accept him
476
00:37:48,860 --> 00:37:50,820
and drop this your pagan religion.
477
00:37:50,820 --> 00:37:51,820
- Shut up! Be still.
478
00:37:53,960 --> 00:37:56,480
How dare you! What effrontery!
479
00:37:58,753 --> 00:37:59,920
What audacity!
480
00:38:02,116 --> 00:38:07,116
Nkoyo, oh, oh, she must
have deposited more nonsense
481
00:38:08,577 --> 00:38:12,150
into your brain than I even thought.
482
00:38:12,150 --> 00:38:12,983
Huh!
483
00:38:14,959 --> 00:38:17,635
- Let me ask you a question,
484
00:38:17,635 --> 00:38:20,424
if I give birth to twins,
will you throw them away, too?
485
00:38:20,424 --> 00:38:22,713
(man speaks in foreign language)
486
00:38:22,713 --> 00:38:26,796

delivering evil for me!

so your twins could be saved.
515
00:40:05,780 --> 00:40:06,613
- I know.
516
00:40:08,740 --> 00:40:11,390
I also know there will be pressure on me
517
00:40:11,390 --> 00:40:14,553
to do what our custom
requires of me to do.
518
00:40:15,523 --> 00:40:17,773

519
00:40:18,823 --> 00:40:20,703

Throwing them away will
not be an option for me.

if pressure will break you.
522
00:40:29,570 --> 00:40:31,820
Nothing must happen to
those innocent babies!
523
00:40:33,551 --> 00:40:37,801

don't worry about that.
524

You have my word on this.

Thank you very much.

My wife.
528
00:40:55,390 --> 00:40:59,260
- It's like Nkoyo knew she
was gonna have twin babies.
529
00:40:59,260 --> 00:41:01,740
That was why she dragged Etim to church
530
00:41:01,740 --> 00:41:03,060
to become a Christian.
531
00:41:03,060 --> 00:41:05,820
Now we have three people for Christ,
532
00:41:05,820 --> 00:41:07,766
Etim and his two babies.

00:41:07,766 --> 00:41:09,641

- [Group] Hallelujah!
535
00:41:14,180 --> 00:41:19,180
- You have all heard about
Etim's twins and his refusal
536
00:41:20,580 --> 00:41:24,535
to comply with the tradition
of throwing them away.
537
00:41:24,535 --> 00:41:27,368
But we are going to do it for him.
538
00:41:28,520 --> 00:41:32,270
We will not allow him to
continue being deceived by
539
00:41:32,270 --> 00:41:34,351
that foolish white woman
540
00:41:34,351 --> 00:41:37,036
and all those who follow
her strange religion.
541
00:41:37,036 --> 00:41:41,970
- Chief priest, I heard
Etim has become a Christian
542
00:41:41,970 --> 00:41:44,320
and has followed those
foolish women to that place
543
00:41:44,320 --> 00:41:46,183
they call church.
544
00:41:49,566 --> 00:41:52,960
- Etim is not a problem, he is a weak man.
545
00:41:55,400 --> 00:41:57,700
His wife put the strange
religion in his head.
546
00:41:59,150 --> 00:42:00,783
We will take those babies from him.
547
00:42:02,170 --> 00:42:04,663
Unlike the white woman,
he has no police man
548
00:42:04,663 --> 00:42:06,643
guarding his house.
549
00:42:06,643 --> 00:42:10,060
- Exactly! That was what I wanted to say.
550
00:42:11,284 --> 00:42:13,473
You took it from my mouth.
551
00:42:13,473 --> 00:42:17,792
- Well, our community
has charged me to uphold
552
00:42:17,792 --> 00:42:19,673
our customs and tradition,
553
00:42:19,673 --> 00:42:22,364
and Etim must be made to comply.
554
00:42:22,364 --> 00:42:23,531
- [Group] Yes.
555
00:42:24,737 --> 00:42:28,960
- Chief Priest, since
we are all in agreement,
556
00:42:28,960 --> 00:42:31,175
then we must do the needful.
557
00:42:31,175 --> 00:42:32,740
- Yes.
- Yes.
558
00:42:39,974 --> 00:42:42,557
(gentle music)
559
00:42:58,770 --> 00:43:03,770
- Now, we will attack the
hut and steal the children,
560
00:43:06,240 --> 00:43:07,413
steal the twins.
561
00:43:18,004 --> 00:43:22,793
- It is time for us to give
up this superstitious beliefs.
562
00:43:22,793 --> 00:43:25,600
Anyone who dares to
come close to this house
563
00:43:25,600 --> 00:43:27,470
will lose his head.
564
00:43:27,470 --> 00:43:28,303
Now!
565
00:43:29,823 --> 00:43:31,180
- What if he resists?
566
00:43:31,180 --> 00:43:32,920
- Then we'll cut off his neck.
567
00:43:34,553 --> 00:43:36,490
- Remember the British law.
568
00:43:36,490 --> 00:43:39,650
They will hang us if we are caught.
569
00:43:39,650 --> 00:43:41,050
- Who cares!
570
00:43:41,050 --> 00:43:45,164
We will die preserving
our custom and tradition.
571
00:43:45,164 --> 00:43:48,403
- You have to kill me
first before you take them.
572
00:43:48,403 --> 00:43:53,204
And I'm not ready to lose the
fight just to protect them.
573
00:43:53,204 --> 00:43:54,787
I know you're here.
574
00:43:55,775 --> 00:43:56,724
- Let's go.
575
00:43:56,724 --> 00:43:59,124
- I know these bushes are surrounded.
576
00:43:59,124 --> 00:44:03,488
I know you're here, but this my machete
577
00:44:03,488 --> 00:44:06,160
is ready to chop off your head.
578
00:44:06,160 --> 00:44:08,927
Try me! Try me!
579
00:44:08,927 --> 00:44:10,252
You know what I can do.
580
00:44:10,252 --> 00:44:14,231
I, Etim Etikudor, I am waiting for you.
581
00:44:14,231 --> 00:44:16,507
You know the head warrior of this land.
582
00:44:17,441 --> 00:44:18,337
I am waiting for you.
583
00:44:18,337 --> 00:44:22,023
I am ready for the fight
to protect my kids.
584
00:44:22,023 --> 00:44:23,793
Relax, there is no cause for alarm.
585
00:44:23,793 --> 00:44:26,589
I am here. I am the warrior.
586
00:44:26,589 --> 00:44:27,756
I am the lion.
587
00:44:29,616 --> 00:44:31,866
I am waiting for you. Come!
588
00:44:33,174 --> 00:44:36,424
- Did you hear that? Did you hear that?
589
00:44:38,473 --> 00:44:41,743
Does he think his boasts can save him?
590
00:44:43,149 --> 00:44:46,099
He is nothing but a goat.
591
00:44:46,099 --> 00:44:46,932
A goat.
592
00:44:49,310 --> 00:44:54,310
Now let's see, let's see what
this boast will bring to him.
593
00:44:55,520 --> 00:44:57,713
We must attack him now.
594
00:44:58,691 --> 00:44:59,633
- No, wait.
595
00:45:00,610 --> 00:45:04,913
He could die and the British
Consul will come for us.
596
00:45:05,960 --> 00:45:08,068
I think the best thing
for us to do is to go back
597
00:45:08,068 --> 00:45:09,851
and come back when he
has gone to the farm.
598
00:45:09,851 --> 00:45:11,934
- No, no. Attack him now.
599
00:45:12,810 --> 00:45:15,266
- I say it's better we
meet him on in his farm.
600
00:45:15,266 --> 00:45:18,890
- No. No retreat, no surrender.
601
00:45:18,890 --> 00:45:21,015
We attack him now.
602
00:45:21,015 --> 00:45:22,829
You go this way, I go this way.
603
00:45:22,829 --> 00:45:23,758
- [Man] Yes.
604
00:45:23,758 --> 00:45:26,508
(dramatic music)
605
00:45:36,369 --> 00:45:37,790
- I know you're here.
606
00:45:37,790 --> 00:45:40,390
(upbeat music)
607
00:45:40,390 --> 00:45:41,640
- How dare you?
608
00:45:42,625 --> 00:45:44,922
Pride goes before a fall.
609
00:45:44,922 --> 00:45:45,881
Take him.
610
00:45:45,881 --> 00:45:47,899
(Etim speaking in foreign language)
611
00:45:47,899 --> 00:45:50,523
- Me, Etim?
612
00:45:50,523 --> 00:45:53,791
(men thudding)
613
00:45:53,791 --> 00:45:54,869
(man crashes)
614
00:45:54,869 --> 00:45:56,590
(Etim speaking in foreign language)
615
00:45:56,590 --> 00:45:59,173
(upbeat music)
616
00:46:02,758 --> 00:46:04,870
(men thuds)
617
00:46:04,870 --> 00:46:06,627
(Etim speaking in foreign language)
618
00:46:06,627 --> 00:46:09,729
(men speaking in foreign language)
619
00:46:09,729 --> 00:46:12,312
(upbeat music)
620
00:46:17,558 --> 00:46:20,457
(Etim speaking in foreign language)
621
00:46:20,457 --> 00:46:21,849
Where are they?
622
00:46:21,849 --> 00:46:23,467
You people want to try me.
623
00:46:23,467 --> 00:46:27,384
I Etim Etikudor, the head
warrior of this land.
624
00:46:29,887 --> 00:46:31,369
No problem.
625
00:46:31,369 --> 00:46:36,369
(woman singing in foreign language)
626
00:46:36,416 --> 00:46:38,666
Nkoyo, Nkoyo, are you okay?
627
00:46:39,566 --> 00:46:43,899
(woman singing in foreign language)
628
00:46:48,486 --> 00:46:52,180
- Another practice that will
surely send these people
629
00:46:52,180 --> 00:46:55,220
to hell is the human sacrifice.
630
00:46:55,220 --> 00:47:00,020
Can you imagine they bury the
wife of a great man or chief
631
00:47:00,020 --> 00:47:01,880
with him when he dies?
632
00:47:01,880 --> 00:47:04,350
Absolutely nonsense!
633
00:47:04,350 --> 00:47:06,900
- William, I am working
very hard on that one, too.
634
00:47:09,690 --> 00:47:11,860
I received a word from one of my workers
635
00:47:12,790 --> 00:47:16,533
on such a burial this evening,
few miles away from here.
636
00:47:18,390 --> 00:47:19,540
I want to go there and stop it.
637
00:47:19,540 --> 00:47:20,640
Will you come with me?
638
00:47:22,569 --> 00:47:26,460
- I can't, I'll be tempted
to kill all involved.
639
00:47:26,460 --> 00:47:29,280
- William, we will change
these people by persuading them
640
00:47:29,280 --> 00:47:31,830
and teaching them the better
Christian alternative.
641
00:47:34,610 --> 00:47:35,897
- If you say so.
642
00:47:35,897 --> 00:47:38,480
(upbeat music)
643
00:47:47,615 --> 00:47:49,765
- Be watchful so you
don't step on a snake.
644
00:47:50,754 --> 00:47:52,359
Mary I am serious,
645
00:47:52,359 --> 00:47:54,370
I'm serious!
- William.
646
00:47:54,370 --> 00:47:55,860
- Don't worry.
- Yeah.
647
00:47:55,860 --> 00:47:58,410
If I step on the snake,
you will protect me.
648
00:47:58,410 --> 00:47:59,670
- Oh, of course, of course.
649
00:47:59,670 --> 00:48:01,780
William is here for you.
650
00:48:01,780 --> 00:48:03,113
William is here.
651
00:48:06,320 --> 00:48:10,420
Wow! Wow!
652
00:48:10,420 --> 00:48:14,630
This is the deadliest jungle
in this part of the world.
653
00:48:14,630 --> 00:48:17,210
My goodness! My goodness!
654
00:48:17,210 --> 00:48:21,570
I've been to East Africa,
I've been to Southern Africa,
655
00:48:21,570 --> 00:48:26,570
I've never seen such massive
and intimidating jungle.
656
00:48:28,900 --> 00:48:31,200
- It such a blessing for
people who live here.
657
00:48:32,050 --> 00:48:32,930
- Yes of course.
658
00:48:32,930 --> 00:48:36,720
- It's a great economic
boon if smartly harnessed.
659
00:48:36,720 --> 00:48:38,780
- Yea, yea! You're right.
660
00:48:38,780 --> 00:48:39,870
You're right.
661
00:48:39,870 --> 00:48:42,860
- The whole world could be
supplied with timber from here.
662
00:48:42,860 --> 00:48:44,700
- Yes of course. Yes.
663
00:48:44,700 --> 00:48:47,250
Yes, of course. Wow!
664
00:48:47,250 --> 00:48:48,150
This is beautiful.
665
00:48:49,060 --> 00:48:53,887
- Anytime I walk here, I really
get to admire this place.
666
00:48:53,887 --> 00:48:55,387
- Oh my God! Yeah.
667
00:48:56,829 --> 00:48:59,641
It's really great. God is great.
668
00:48:59,641 --> 00:49:00,662
Let's go.
669
00:49:00,662 --> 00:49:03,245
(upbeat music)
670
00:49:32,310 --> 00:49:36,393
- I am sorry. The tradition
must take its course.
671
00:49:37,830 --> 00:49:39,452
- [Woman] Please, have mercy.
672
00:49:39,452 --> 00:49:42,404
- You must be buried alongside
with my late brother, yes.
673
00:49:42,404 --> 00:49:45,154
- [Woman] Have mercy. Have mercy.
674
00:49:48,911 --> 00:49:49,744
- Stop it.
675
00:49:51,444 --> 00:49:54,684
Come on, stop it both of you.
676
00:49:54,684 --> 00:49:57,000
- What do you want?
677
00:49:57,000 --> 00:49:59,550
- We have come in peace
here, with the word of God.
678
00:50:00,570 --> 00:50:02,240
You must let these women go.
679
00:50:02,240 --> 00:50:03,073
- Go where?
680
00:50:04,612 --> 00:50:07,637
They are the wives of
my late brother, Bassey.
681
00:50:08,561 --> 00:50:10,228
A great man we lost.
682
00:50:11,791 --> 00:50:14,982
And Bassey will be buried tonight.
683
00:50:14,982 --> 00:50:17,782
And they shall be buried alongside
684
00:50:17,782 --> 00:50:19,552
with my late brother, Bassey.
685
00:50:19,552 --> 00:50:20,385
- Why?
686
00:50:21,633 --> 00:50:24,313
Bassey is already dead.
687
00:50:24,313 --> 00:50:26,367
What will dead wives do for him?
688
00:50:26,367 --> 00:50:28,113
- They will serve him in the other world,
689
00:50:28,113 --> 00:50:29,860
where he has gone.
690
00:50:29,860 --> 00:50:31,700
- There is no such world.
691
00:50:31,700 --> 00:50:33,320
There is only Kingdom of God.
692
00:50:33,320 --> 00:50:36,060
And there is no slavish practice there.
693
00:50:36,060 --> 00:50:37,547
- Have you been there before?
694
00:50:38,870 --> 00:50:41,000
- The word of God tells
us all we need to know
695
00:50:41,000 --> 00:50:42,342
about heaven.
696
00:50:42,342 --> 00:50:46,590
- I will blow your
skull off! Release them.
697
00:50:46,590 --> 00:50:49,094
Let the dead be buried in peace.
698
00:50:49,094 --> 00:50:50,228
Release them now!
699
00:50:50,228 --> 00:50:51,457
- William, William, calm down.
700
00:50:51,457 --> 00:50:52,290
Please calm down.
701
00:50:52,290 --> 00:50:54,088
- I will blow your skull off
if you don't release them now.
702
00:50:54,088 --> 00:50:55,838
- Calm down, William.
703
00:50:57,556 --> 00:50:58,639
- Okay. Okay.
704
00:51:00,165 --> 00:51:05,165
Since you are here, you are
the eyes of the British Consul.
705
00:51:05,222 --> 00:51:06,334
We will release them to you.
706
00:51:06,334 --> 00:51:10,667
(woman singing in foreign language)
707
00:51:29,494 --> 00:51:33,654
- Listen to me, you people
in his village should stop
708
00:51:33,654 --> 00:51:36,944
this evil and barbaric practice,
709
00:51:36,944 --> 00:51:38,777
because it is ungodly.
710
00:51:39,762 --> 00:51:42,991
It is against the Holy Bible.
711
00:51:42,991 --> 00:51:45,963
It is against God. You should stop it!
712
00:51:45,963 --> 00:51:47,163
Do you get me?
713
00:51:47,163 --> 00:51:49,643
(women crying)
714
00:51:49,643 --> 00:51:53,976
(woman singing in foreign language)
715
00:52:02,492 --> 00:52:07,310
- Hey! We must bury my late
brother Bassey this night.
716
00:52:07,310 --> 00:52:08,505
- Yes.
717
00:52:08,505 --> 00:52:10,173
- And with two female heads.
718
00:52:11,630 --> 00:52:12,990
What do we do?
719
00:52:12,990 --> 00:52:14,440
What do we do? What do we do?
720
00:52:16,000 --> 00:52:20,610
- Okay, Ekpo, we must go
for hunting this night.
721
00:52:20,610 --> 00:52:22,369
In fact, now!
722
00:52:22,369 --> 00:52:23,202
Because we have to-
- I think you have a point.
723
00:52:23,202 --> 00:52:25,995
bury Bassey with these two
ladies, these two women.
724
00:52:25,995 --> 00:52:27,432
- You have a point.
What are we waiting for?
725
00:52:27,432 --> 00:52:32,432
♪ When I think about the
world that we have built ♪
726
00:52:35,323 --> 00:52:40,156
Oh Bassey, my brother, fare
thee well among our ancestors.
727
00:52:45,756 --> 00:52:49,633
The two women right there with
you in the grave right now
728
00:52:49,633 --> 00:52:53,500
may not be your lovely
wives, Eno and Atim,
729
00:52:55,952 --> 00:52:58,785
but they will sure serve you well.
730
00:53:00,163 --> 00:53:05,163
That ignorant white woman
took away your lovely wives,
731
00:53:05,760 --> 00:53:09,133
Eno and Atim few hours ago.
732
00:53:10,844 --> 00:53:14,427
No one will deny you
the women you deserve.
733
00:53:16,512 --> 00:53:19,595
Kufere and I had to make replacement.
734
00:53:22,321 --> 00:53:24,488
Fare thee well my brother.
735
00:53:25,803 --> 00:53:29,720
(speaking in foreign language)
736
00:53:43,463 --> 00:53:46,546
♪ God please save us ♪
737
00:53:58,643 --> 00:54:00,810
- Sorry. You will be fine.
738
00:54:04,420 --> 00:54:05,420
- Thank you.
739
00:54:07,421 --> 00:54:08,338
- Sorry ma.
740
00:54:17,062 --> 00:54:20,145
You can help me rob her the medicine.
741
00:54:27,506 --> 00:54:28,339
Sorry.
742
00:54:30,955 --> 00:54:31,811
Sorry.
743
00:54:31,811 --> 00:54:34,228
- [Woman] Sorry, sister Mary.
744
00:54:36,068 --> 00:54:36,901
- Sorry.
745
00:54:43,929 --> 00:54:44,762
Sorry.
746
00:54:46,409 --> 00:54:47,576
Sorry.
- Sorry.
747
00:54:52,130 --> 00:54:54,660
- My biggest challenge
here in Efik country
748
00:54:55,835 --> 00:54:58,653
is all these fevers I get all the time.
749
00:55:01,650 --> 00:55:04,963
Since I arrived here in 1876,
750
00:55:06,560 --> 00:55:08,773
it has felled me too many times.
751
00:55:11,090 --> 00:55:14,793
I may head back to Scotland
again to regain my health.
752
00:55:16,850 --> 00:55:18,878
- You will be well again Sister Mary,
753
00:55:18,878 --> 00:55:20,401
God will heal you in Jesus name.
754
00:55:20,401 --> 00:55:21,635
- Amen.
755
00:55:21,635 --> 00:55:22,624
- Amen.
756
00:55:22,624 --> 00:55:25,637
- Sister Mary, God will heal you.
757
00:55:25,637 --> 00:55:27,603
Nothing will happen to you.
758
00:55:28,700 --> 00:55:31,580
Even the pagan gods here know
the good you have brought
759
00:55:31,580 --> 00:55:32,683
in our lives.
760
00:55:33,590 --> 00:55:37,400
All the twin children you
rescued in this village
761
00:55:37,400 --> 00:55:38,773
will never forget you.
762
00:55:40,510 --> 00:55:41,343
I promise you.
763
00:55:42,714 --> 00:55:44,553
- May God bless you ma, in Jesus name.
764
00:55:44,553 --> 00:55:46,733
- [Group] Amen.
765
00:55:46,733 --> 00:55:48,873
- Thank you very kindly, Eme.
766
00:55:49,750 --> 00:55:52,898
Thank you Nse and Nkesse
for always being by my side.
767
00:55:52,898 --> 00:55:54,024
- You're welcome.
768
00:55:54,024 --> 00:55:56,160
- And helping me to heal.
769
00:55:56,160 --> 00:55:58,235
- Thank you.
- No problem.
770
00:55:58,235 --> 00:56:00,483
- There is still a lot of work to do here.
771
00:56:02,050 --> 00:56:06,320
I pray my health gets better
so the work will continue.
772
00:56:06,320 --> 00:56:09,187
- It will.
- It will continue.
773
00:56:09,187 --> 00:56:10,283
- Sorry.
774
00:56:11,815 --> 00:56:13,232
You will be fine.
775
00:56:20,610 --> 00:56:24,513
- I must go to Okoyong land
in the north of this region.
776
00:56:27,600 --> 00:56:30,370
I must affect the lives
there as I have here.
777
00:56:30,370 --> 00:56:31,903
They must stop killing twins.
778
00:56:34,120 --> 00:56:37,160
- Sister Mary, you want to go to Okoyong?
779
00:56:39,055 --> 00:56:41,055
Is it not too dangerous?
780
00:56:42,380 --> 00:56:44,810
- Mary, are you out of your mind?
781
00:56:44,810 --> 00:56:49,386
Are you not aware Okoyong
land is a very dangerous place
782
00:56:49,386 --> 00:56:52,663
to be, and they are
killing male missionaries?
783
00:56:53,700 --> 00:56:55,373
Yet, you still want to go there?
784
00:56:56,790 --> 00:56:57,983
- William, I am aware.
785
00:57:00,570 --> 00:57:03,333
We're trying to stop them
from killing the twins.
786
00:57:04,190 --> 00:57:07,373
But also, we need to reach
them with the word of the Lord.
787
00:57:10,580 --> 00:57:14,310
- If that is what you want,
I don't have a choice.
788
00:57:14,310 --> 00:57:18,320
But I will advise you to make
sure you take military escort
789
00:57:18,320 --> 00:57:19,313
to protect you.
790
00:57:21,890 --> 00:57:24,713
- I don't need one. I'll be fine.
791
00:57:26,050 --> 00:57:28,127
I'm just a harmless woman.
792
00:57:28,127 --> 00:57:29,483
They will do no harm to me.
793
00:57:31,220 --> 00:57:34,500
- Mary, if that is what you want.
794
00:57:34,500 --> 00:57:36,900
Anyway, I will be traveling
tomorrow to Calabar.
795
00:57:37,860 --> 00:57:42,560
And if things get tough, and
there is cause for alarm,
796
00:57:42,560 --> 00:57:45,680
get across and send me a message please.
797
00:57:45,680 --> 00:57:48,098
- I will. Thank you, William.
798
00:57:48,098 --> 00:57:48,967
- You are welcome.
799
00:57:48,967 --> 00:57:50,492
- Thank you for spending time with me.
800
00:57:50,492 --> 00:57:51,421
- [William] You're welcome, Mary.
801
00:57:51,421 --> 00:57:53,734
- I hope to see you in
Okoyong country sometimes.
802
00:57:53,734 --> 00:57:54,942
- Amen.
803
00:57:54,942 --> 00:57:56,212
- Thank you.
804
00:57:56,212 --> 00:57:59,837
(woman singing in foreign language)
805
00:57:59,837 --> 00:58:03,207
(ominous music)
806
00:58:03,207 --> 00:58:05,393
- Please. Please.
807
00:58:05,393 --> 00:58:08,983
- Next time I will find you
both in a place like this
808
00:58:08,983 --> 00:58:13,983
called church, I will
burn you like this hut.
809
00:58:14,676 --> 00:58:16,828
- [Women] Sorry please,
you will not see us.
810
00:58:16,828 --> 00:58:18,938
- Now get up and run away.
811
00:58:18,938 --> 00:58:20,021
Come on, run.
812
00:58:25,926 --> 00:58:28,040
Anywhere they set up these churches,
813
00:58:28,040 --> 00:58:29,940
we are going to burn it down.
814
00:58:29,940 --> 00:58:32,280
We don't need their
strange religion anymore.
815
00:58:32,280 --> 00:58:35,156
- Yes, we'll set it ablaze.
816
00:58:35,156 --> 00:58:38,241
(fire burning)
817
00:58:38,241 --> 00:58:40,824
(upbeat music)
818
00:59:37,870 --> 00:59:40,850
- Chief Edem, I am delighted to be
819
00:59:40,850 --> 00:59:42,713
in your Okoyong community.
820
00:59:43,600 --> 00:59:45,375
- Welcome to Okoyong.
821
00:59:45,375 --> 00:59:47,065
(speaking in foreign language)
822
00:59:47,065 --> 00:59:48,780
What have you come here for?
823
00:59:48,780 --> 00:59:51,270
- I've come here to make friends with you
824
00:59:51,270 --> 00:59:53,800
and also bring good news for your people
825
00:59:53,800 --> 00:59:56,433
about the word from our Lord Jesus Christ.
826
00:59:57,900 --> 01:00:00,210
- This will bring more problems here.
827
01:00:02,200 --> 01:00:04,583
My people do not want this religion.
828
01:00:06,080 --> 01:00:08,820
There has been problem
in the past in my kingdom
829
01:00:08,820 --> 01:00:10,750
because of this religion.
830
01:00:10,750 --> 01:00:12,514
We do not want any more trouble.
831
01:00:12,514 --> 01:00:15,140
(men speaking in foreign language)
832
01:00:15,140 --> 01:00:17,440
- But, there will not be any trouble.
833
01:00:17,440 --> 01:00:19,117
I won't allow that to happen.
834
01:00:20,550 --> 01:00:22,000
- What else brought you here?
835
01:00:23,650 --> 01:00:26,333
- I want you to help me
to stop killing the twins.
836
01:00:28,540 --> 01:00:30,490
They are innocent babies.
837
01:00:30,490 --> 01:00:31,963
They are children of God.
838
01:00:33,480 --> 01:00:36,053
- You mean children of your God.
839
01:00:37,110 --> 01:00:39,613
The same God you have come
here to preach to us about?
840
01:00:41,660 --> 01:00:45,200
We do not believe in that God.
841
01:00:45,200 --> 01:00:47,830
We only believe in our own gods
842
01:00:47,830 --> 01:00:51,300
and they have commanded
us never to accept twins
843
01:00:51,300 --> 01:00:52,635
in our community.
844
01:00:52,635 --> 01:00:55,645
(men speaking in foreign language)
845
01:00:55,645 --> 01:00:58,943
- Chief Edem, I will
win you over some day.
846
01:00:59,920 --> 01:01:02,340
- I do not think that
will ever be possible.
847
01:01:03,264 --> 01:01:07,514
(man speaking in foreign language)
848
01:01:18,844 --> 01:01:23,261
(woman singing in foreign language)
849
01:01:26,184 --> 01:01:29,510
- Jesus Christ is the son of God.
850
01:01:29,510 --> 01:01:32,453
He was crucified on the
cross and died for our sins.
851
01:01:34,210 --> 01:01:37,543
He rose on the third day from
death and went to heaven.
852
01:01:39,350 --> 01:01:43,870
We must all repent from our
sins so we can make it to heaven
853
01:01:43,870 --> 01:01:44,983
and see the Lord.
854
01:01:46,280 --> 01:01:49,050
Are you all ready to give
your lives to Jesus Christ?
855
01:01:49,050 --> 01:01:50,340
- [Women] Yes, we are ready.
856
01:01:50,340 --> 01:01:51,853
- And stop the pagan worship.
857
01:01:54,236 --> 01:01:56,710
Are you ready to help
me to stop the killing
858
01:01:56,710 --> 01:01:58,353
of twins in this land?
859
01:02:07,840 --> 01:02:12,330
(women speaking in foreign language)
860
01:02:12,330 --> 01:02:15,810
- Mary, I want to have a word with you.
861
01:02:15,810 --> 01:02:17,390
- Okay.
862
01:02:17,390 --> 01:02:20,033
Please ladies, excuse me
and Eme for a few minutes.
863
01:02:22,695 --> 01:02:25,650
- [Man] Our stupid Edem allowed this woman
864
01:02:25,650 --> 01:02:27,160
in this community
865
01:02:27,160 --> 01:02:30,330
and now she is poisoning
the minds of our women
866
01:02:30,330 --> 01:02:32,200
with her strange religion.
867
01:02:32,200 --> 01:02:34,533
I will cut off their heads one by one.
868
01:02:41,637 --> 01:02:46,637
- Mary, I can see you want to
bring some light to our land.
869
01:02:47,130 --> 01:02:48,123
I will help you.
870
01:02:49,200 --> 01:02:52,310
I am my brother's most trusted confidant.
871
01:02:52,310 --> 01:02:54,420
I will get him for you.
872
01:02:54,420 --> 01:02:58,492
But I am not going to convert
to become a Christian.
873
01:02:58,492 --> 01:03:01,913
- Thank you so much Eme,
but why won't you convert?
874
01:03:03,355 --> 01:03:05,303
- I don't want to take that step yet,
875
01:03:06,470 --> 01:03:09,447
but I am going to help
you to make your stay
876
01:03:09,447 --> 01:03:12,000
easier in Okoyong land.
877
01:03:12,000 --> 01:03:14,051
- Okay. God bless you, Eme.
878
01:03:14,051 --> 01:03:15,884
- Thank you!
Thank you.
879
01:03:17,853 --> 01:03:22,853

01:04:43,379 --> 01:04:46,046
(upbeat music)
898
01:04:49,010 --> 01:04:53,400
- Edem, I feel the white
woman means well for us
899
01:04:53,400 --> 01:04:54,890
in this land.
900
01:04:54,890 --> 01:04:56,337
- How do you mean?
901
01:04:56,337 --> 01:05:00,070
- I have heard of the
good life in Calabar town,
902
01:05:00,070 --> 01:05:01,850
of those who can read and write
903
01:05:01,850 --> 01:05:03,823
in the white man's language.
904
01:05:04,680 --> 01:05:08,839
Let us allow her to bring
such light to us here.
905
01:05:08,839 --> 01:05:11,900
- And tomorrow, one of those
educated people will come here
906
01:05:11,900 --> 01:05:14,780
and challenge our family for
the throne of this village?
907
01:05:14,780 --> 01:05:15,613
- Eh ah!
908
01:05:17,110 --> 01:05:19,568
Let her start by teaching your children.
909
01:05:19,568 --> 01:05:23,690
(speaking in foreign language)
910
01:05:23,690 --> 01:05:27,937
Edem, my brother, you know I
will not be part of anything
911
01:05:28,990 --> 01:05:32,483
that will take away the throne from us.
912
01:05:33,330 --> 01:05:38,100
But I can feel, I can feel
it that the future belongs
913
01:05:38,100 --> 01:05:42,010
to those who can adopt
to the white man's ways.
914
01:05:42,010 --> 01:05:44,300
- You mean the white woman's ways.
915
01:05:44,300 --> 01:05:46,647
- It is the same, man or woman.
916
01:05:48,828 --> 01:05:52,745
(speaking in foreign language)
917
01:05:56,570 --> 01:05:59,653
(lighthearted music)
918
01:06:01,740 --> 01:06:04,540
- I have heard that you have
something they call school,
919
01:06:06,420 --> 01:06:08,910
where you teach people
how to read and write
920
01:06:08,910 --> 01:06:09,903
in your language.
921
01:06:11,130 --> 01:06:14,110
I also heard that in
the big city of Calabar,
922
01:06:14,110 --> 01:06:16,040
those people that were
taught how to read and write
923
01:06:16,040 --> 01:06:18,850
are now enjoying their life.
924
01:06:18,850 --> 01:06:22,013
So, can you replicate the
same thing here in Okoyong?
925
01:06:22,013 --> 01:06:26,230
- Yes, I can, but you must
promise to become a Christian
926
01:06:27,290 --> 01:06:30,063
and order a stop to the
practice of killing twins.
927
01:06:31,698 --> 01:06:33,510
- That is impossible.
928
01:06:33,510 --> 01:06:35,313
Me, stopping the killing of twins.
929
01:06:36,490 --> 01:06:37,730
It was handed down to me.
930
01:06:37,730 --> 01:06:40,503
This tradition was handed
down to me by my forefathers,
931
01:06:41,480 --> 01:06:45,130
and as the king, it is
my prerogative to uphold
932
01:06:45,130 --> 01:06:46,480
and protect that tradition.
933
01:06:47,340 --> 01:06:51,130
But I can ask them to stop
the harassment of Christians.
934
01:06:52,640 --> 01:06:55,223
- There is this one I am
told his name is Efiong.
935
01:06:56,440 --> 01:07:00,143
He has caused the small church
community so much grief.
936
01:07:01,180 --> 01:07:02,530
- I will order him to stop.
937
01:07:03,440 --> 01:07:05,360
So when can I send my children to come
938
01:07:05,360 --> 01:07:07,220
and start lesson with you?
939
01:07:07,220 --> 01:07:10,274
- Very soon! I will
come back and tell you.
940
01:07:10,274 --> 01:07:11,511

(woman singing in foreign language)
975
01:08:17,725 --> 01:08:20,720
- I gave birth to them yesterday
and they took them away
976
01:08:20,720 --> 01:08:23,320
from me and brought them there.
977

We'll go and get your babies now.

We'll rescue your children.
980
01:08:31,259 --> 01:08:32,833
- (sobbing) Thank you ma! Thank you!
981
01:08:35,440 --> 01:08:39,489
Can I come and stay with
you and care for them there?
982
01:08:39,489 --> 01:08:43,810
They will come and take
them away from me again
983
01:08:43,810 --> 01:08:45,820
if I go home with them.
984
01:08:45,820 --> 01:08:47,819
- Yes, you can.
985
01:08:47,819 --> 01:08:48,670
You can.
986
01:08:48,670 --> 01:08:51,790
I am building a mission

Thank you.

Thank you!

I accept your appreciation.

will prove your innocence

- I am not guilty. I
will not take anything.
1013
01:10:35,400 --> 01:10:39,750
- In that case, I will notify the Chief
1014
01:10:39,750 --> 01:10:40,973
about this encounter.
1015
01:10:42,610 --> 01:10:46,373
You will either be banished
or you will be killed.

- What are you doing in the shrine?
1021
01:11:27,820 --> 01:11:31,910
- I am here as a Vice Consul
to look into disputes.
1022
01:11:31,910 --> 01:11:34,160
You've concluded on no
evidence the woman killed
1023
01:11:34,160 --> 01:11:35,930
the baby boy in his
sleep, when she was not
1024
01:11:35,930 --> 01:11:38,760
even in the house where
the baby boy slept.
1025
01:11:38,760 --> 01:11:40,890
How did you conclude such?
1026
01:11:40,890 --> 01:11:43,983
- I concluded such by virtue
of being a witch doctor.
1027
01:11:45,090 --> 01:11:49,153
That woman turned into a
bat in her sleep and went
1028
01:11:49,153 --> 01:11:50,323
and ate the child.
1029
01:11:50,323 --> 01:11:52,340
- Turned into a bird?
1030
01:11:52,340 --> 01:11:53,173
- Yes.
1031
01:11:53,173 --> 01:11:54,810
- That is fantastic.
1032
01:11:54,810 --> 01:11:57,020
How is that even possible?
1033
01:11:57,020 --> 01:12:02,017
- It is possible because I see
things that you do not see.
1034
01:12:03,065 --> 01:12:05,080
- The woman is a member of my church.
1035
01:12:05,080 --> 01:12:08,700
She is a Christian that gave
her life to Jesus Christ.
1036
01:12:08,700 --> 01:12:12,320
She is not capable of doing
things that you accuse her of.
1037
01:12:12,320 --> 01:12:13,833
Nothing must happen to her.
1038
01:12:15,060 --> 01:12:17,410
- I have already told the chief,
1039
01:12:17,410 --> 01:12:20,233
she must leave this land
or we will kill her.
1040
01:12:20,233 --> 01:12:23,820
- I am going to the chief's
house now to stop any action

I was being careful

with the pepper because of you.
1057

Since I started eating local food,
1059
01:13:40,070 --> 01:13:41,543

01:13:47,900 --> 01:13:49,690
yes if the food will be tasty.
1063
01:13:49,690 --> 01:13:50,973
- No problem sister Mary.
1064
01:13:52,388 --> 01:13:55,548
I'm glad you're enjoying the food.
1065
01:13:55,548 --> 01:13:58,676
- Ma, you have really
made progress enlightening

the people of Okoyong.
1067
01:14:02,190 --> 01:14:04,090
- I knew it would happen.
1068
01:14:04,090 --> 01:14:07,390
We did it in Calabar,
so there was no reason
1069
01:14:08,760 --> 01:14:10,494
it couldn't work here.
1070
01:14:10,494 --> 01:14:12,133

01:14:12,133 --> 01:14:13,300

1074
01:14:16,014 --> 01:14:16,875
- Have you eaten today?
1075
01:14:16,875 --> 01:14:17,869
- Yes ma.
1076
01:14:17,869 --> 01:14:18,827
- You sure?.
1077
01:14:18,827 --> 01:14:20,244
- Yes ma.
- Okay.
1078
01:14:22,409 --> 01:14:24,840
- May God bless you, ma.
1079
01:14:24,840 --> 01:14:26,013
- Thank you, Nse.
1080
01:14:27,261 --> 01:14:28,880
Now, that was what I wanted from the woman
1081
01:14:28,880 --> 01:14:31,220
whose babies were rescued.
1082
01:14:31,220 --> 01:14:36,130
Not these pagan gods of Okoyong
who delight in the flesh
1083
01:14:36,130 --> 01:14:38,200
and blood of twins.
1084
01:14:38,200 --> 01:14:40,670
Soon, these gods will
be history in Okoyong.
1085
01:14:40,670 --> 01:14:41,503
- Amen.
1086
01:14:42,402 --> 01:14:44,985
(upbeat music)
1087
01:15:13,970 --> 01:15:15,170
- What can I do for you?
1088
01:15:16,250 --> 01:15:18,790
- The King demands your
presence at the palace now
1089
01:15:20,080 --> 01:15:22,663
for harassing the white woman's followers.
1090
01:15:24,810 --> 01:15:29,130
- Why has the Edem decided
to punish me for upholding
1091
01:15:29,130 --> 01:15:33,130
the culture of Okoyong, and
allowing the white woman
1092
01:15:33,130 --> 01:15:35,820
to poison the mind of my people
1093
01:15:35,820 --> 01:15:38,613
in the name of so called
religion called Christianity?
1094
01:15:39,630 --> 01:15:40,757
- Shut up Efiong.
1095
01:15:41,759 --> 01:15:44,109
Explain that to him when
you get to the palace.
1096
01:15:46,600 --> 01:15:47,700
- She is now a friend.
1097
01:15:48,870 --> 01:15:52,707
She is bringing education
to Okoyong community.
1098
01:15:53,810 --> 01:15:57,460
That's what the King wants
and you are spoiling it.
1099
01:15:57,460 --> 01:15:58,860
The King will deal with you.
1100
01:16:00,951 --> 01:16:02,840
- (speaking in foreign language)
has decided to bring shame
1101
01:16:02,840 --> 01:16:03,750
in Okoyong land.
1102
01:16:05,779 --> 01:16:08,617
He can kill me, but I promise you,
1103
01:16:09,627 --> 01:16:11,483
Okoyong culture will never die.
1104
01:16:12,446 --> 01:16:14,654
- [Eyinbo] Then you will die.
1105
01:16:14,654 --> 01:16:15,987
Move, move, now!
1106
01:16:18,798 --> 01:16:23,131
(woman singing in foreign language)
1107
01:16:36,037 --> 01:16:39,550
- Didn't I order you to stop
harassing the white woman
1108
01:16:39,550 --> 01:16:41,160
and her followers?
1109
01:16:41,160 --> 01:16:43,060
Why have you continued to pursue them?
1110
01:16:43,987 --> 01:16:46,245
You inflicted cuts on some of the women
1111
01:16:46,245 --> 01:16:48,430
that were leaving the lady's house.
1112
01:16:48,430 --> 01:16:49,263
Why?
1113
01:16:50,410 --> 01:16:53,750
- I was only helping to keep
Okoyong culture, my king.
1114
01:16:53,750 --> 01:16:56,300
- I told you that that
lady is here to bring
1115
01:16:56,300 --> 01:16:58,933
the white man's education
and culture to us.
1116
01:17:00,230 --> 01:17:02,310
We want to learn the white man's education
1117
01:17:02,310 --> 01:17:04,660
so that we can live like
those ones in Calabar.
1118
01:17:06,220 --> 01:17:09,700
Tonight, your head will be cut off.
1119
01:17:09,700 --> 01:17:14,478
- I plead with you my King,
please do not take my life.
1120
01:17:14,478 --> 01:17:17,838
I promise not to bother
the Christians again.
1121
01:17:17,838 --> 01:17:18,677
(speaking in foreign language)
1122
01:17:18,677 --> 01:17:19,598
- Guards.
1123
01:17:19,598 --> 01:17:20,431
- [Guards] My king.
1124
01:17:20,431 --> 01:17:21,863
- [King] Take him away from here.
1125
01:17:21,863 --> 01:17:26,780
- My King, (speaking in foreign language).
1126
01:17:29,562 --> 01:17:32,145
(upbeat music)
1127
01:17:35,635 --> 01:17:40,052
(group speaking in foreign language)
1128
01:17:44,069 --> 01:17:48,160
- Let me start by apologizing
for this impromptu meeting
1129
01:17:48,160 --> 01:17:50,143
being called by this time of the night.
1130
01:17:51,660 --> 01:17:54,640
We all know that it has been one year
1131
01:17:54,640 --> 01:17:58,560
since we allowed our white
friend access to our land
1132
01:17:58,560 --> 01:17:59,393
for her work.
1133
01:18:00,610 --> 01:18:02,294
I think we are better off now.
1134
01:18:02,294 --> 01:18:03,127
- Yes.
1135
01:18:03,127 --> 01:18:04,803
- What do you say?
1136
01:18:04,803 --> 01:18:09,712
- (speaking in foreign
language), I do not believe so.
1137
01:18:09,712 --> 01:18:14,712
I am afraid the gods
will punish us one day
1138
01:18:15,323 --> 01:18:17,573
for allowing her stay here.
1139
01:18:19,363 --> 01:18:23,613
(man speaking in foreign language)
1140
01:18:29,481 --> 01:18:32,891
- I agree that our gods are not happy.
1141
01:18:32,891 --> 01:18:34,913
(speaking in foreign language)
1142
01:18:34,913 --> 01:18:38,510
(man speaking in foreign language)
1143
01:18:38,510 --> 01:18:42,990
- Have you not people seen
Calabar town, Duke town,
1144
01:18:42,990 --> 01:18:44,650
or even Creek town?
1145
01:18:44,650 --> 01:18:47,847
How they are developing just
because of the white man's
1146
01:18:47,847 --> 01:18:49,233
education and ways?
1147
01:18:51,630 --> 01:18:54,183
My brother took the right decision.
1148
01:18:55,662 --> 01:18:56,495
- Guard.
1149
01:18:56,495 --> 01:18:57,465
- My king.
1150
01:18:57,465 --> 01:18:59,311
- Go and bring my children.
1151
01:18:59,311 --> 01:19:01,894
(upbeat music)
1152
01:19:36,372 --> 01:19:40,020
My children, tell me about your experience
1153
01:19:40,020 --> 01:19:41,891
with the white woman today.
1154
01:19:41,891 --> 01:19:44,724
- We love the white woman because,
1155
01:19:45,688 --> 01:19:48,274
now, we are learning her language
1156
01:19:48,274 --> 01:19:50,784
and we can read and write in her language.
1157
01:19:50,784 --> 01:19:53,460
- Very good! Very good.
1158
01:19:53,460 --> 01:19:56,953
Okay, show us one of the things you were
1159
01:19:56,953 --> 01:19:58,210
able to learn today.
1160
01:19:58,210 --> 01:20:02,538
- [Children] A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H,
1161
01:20:02,538 --> 01:20:06,788
I, J, K, L, M, N, O, P.
1162
01:20:08,266 --> 01:20:12,516
(man speaking in foreign language)
1163
01:20:14,361 --> 01:20:15,908
- It's wonderful.
1164
01:20:15,908 --> 01:20:19,596
(man speaking in foreign language)
1165
01:20:19,596 --> 01:20:23,929
(men speaking in foreign language)
1166
01:20:28,158 --> 01:20:30,326
- Now you can see it.
1167
01:20:30,326 --> 01:20:34,236
They are being prepared
for the future I see.
1168
01:20:34,236 --> 01:20:37,165
The white woman is the best
thing that happened to us.
1169
01:20:37,165 --> 01:20:41,415
(men speaking in foreign language)
1170
01:20:46,905 --> 01:20:49,488
(upbeat music)
1171
01:20:51,455 --> 01:20:56,205
Edem, ignore these elders.
You are doing the right thing.
1172
01:20:57,425 --> 01:21:00,330
(speaking in foreign language)
1173
01:21:00,330 --> 01:21:02,945
- Thank you very much, my sister.
1174
01:21:02,945 --> 01:21:06,860
I had doubts before, but
you have convinced me
1175
01:21:06,860 --> 01:21:09,665
about this future which belongs to those
1176
01:21:09,665 --> 01:21:13,235
that have studied the white man's ways.
1177
01:21:13,235 --> 01:21:16,393
- Look at Calabar and Creek town.
1178
01:21:17,745 --> 01:21:20,415
Okoyong must be like those towns.
1179
01:21:20,415 --> 01:21:21,248
- Yes.
1180
01:21:21,248 --> 01:21:25,320
- And it will only happen
through this white man's ways
1181
01:21:25,320 --> 01:21:27,483
and what he is bringing to us.
1182
01:21:28,727 --> 01:21:30,116
- I agree with you.
1183
01:21:30,116 --> 01:21:32,975
- I see a future so bright.
1184
01:21:32,975 --> 01:21:35,392
I see light all over Okoyong.
1185
01:21:36,464 --> 01:21:38,865
And it can only happen
through the white man.
1186
01:21:38,865 --> 01:21:43,282
(woman singing in foreign language)
1187
01:22:12,370 --> 01:22:13,203
- Hello Mister!
1188
01:22:15,070 --> 01:22:18,000
Please I want to go to Okoyong land.
1189
01:22:18,000 --> 01:22:20,900
How can I get a canoe
to cross me over there?
1190
01:22:20,900 --> 01:22:22,130
- I have one.
1191
01:22:22,130 --> 01:22:23,020
- Do you have one?
1192
01:22:23,020 --> 01:22:23,970
- Yes sir.
1193
01:22:23,970 --> 01:22:27,780
- How far is the journey to Okoyong land?
1194
01:22:27,780 --> 01:22:29,030
- It's far from here.
1195
01:22:29,030 --> 01:22:30,880
- I hope we'll get there before night.
1196
01:22:30,880 --> 01:22:33,620
- I hopeful, we'll get there before night.
1197
01:22:33,620 --> 01:22:35,027
- What do you do for a living?
1198
01:22:35,027 --> 01:22:36,800
- I am also a fisherman.
1199
01:22:36,800 --> 01:22:39,290
- Wow! That's wonderful. That's beautiful.
1200
01:22:39,290 --> 01:22:41,440
Have you given your life to Christ?
1201
01:22:41,440 --> 01:22:42,770
- No sir!
1202
01:22:42,770 --> 01:22:45,260
- Wow! Don't worry my friend.
1203
01:22:45,260 --> 01:22:47,610
I promise you before
the end of this journey,
1204
01:22:47,610 --> 01:22:49,403
I will lead you to him.
1205
01:22:49,403 --> 01:22:50,443
I promise you this.
1206
01:22:50,443 --> 01:22:51,454
- Thank you sir.
1207
01:22:51,454 --> 01:22:53,241
- You're welcome.
1208
01:22:53,241 --> 01:22:54,074
Can we go?
1209
01:22:54,074 --> 01:22:54,907
- [Fisherman] Let's go.
1210
01:22:54,907 --> 01:22:56,103
- Okay.
1211
01:22:56,103 --> 01:23:00,436
(woman singing in foreign language)
1212
01:23:23,397 --> 01:23:26,913
Mary, congratulations on your appointment
1213
01:23:26,913 --> 01:23:31,913
as the Vice Consul in Okoyong Territory.
1214
01:23:34,290 --> 01:23:37,710
Actually, His Royal Majesty
considers you worthy
1215
01:23:37,710 --> 01:23:38,693
of this post.
1216
01:23:39,660 --> 01:23:44,353
Yes, because of your courageous
work in the community.
1217
01:23:45,440 --> 01:23:47,000
- Thank you, William.
1218
01:23:47,000 --> 01:23:48,463
It's a great honor for me.
1219
01:23:49,920 --> 01:23:52,313
The job comes with great responsibility.
1220
01:23:54,250 --> 01:23:57,800
We have a lot of work to do, massive work,
1221
01:23:57,800 --> 01:24:00,573
but the authority I have now
makes it a little easier.
1222
01:24:02,020 --> 01:24:04,137
Tell me, how was your trip up here?
1223
01:24:04,137 --> 01:24:06,930
- Actually, it was scary.
1224
01:24:06,930 --> 01:24:09,840
And it's normal when
you are in the jungle,
1225
01:24:09,840 --> 01:24:13,023
but you know I have my
pistol to protect myself.
1226
01:24:13,980 --> 01:24:15,330
So, how are you doing, too?
1227
01:24:17,260 --> 01:24:20,900
- William, it's difficult,
but rewarding as we change
1228
01:24:20,900 --> 01:24:22,653
the primitive ways of people here.
1229
01:24:24,370 --> 01:24:28,253
We continue losing the twins,
but it's far more less,
1230
01:24:29,110 --> 01:24:31,110
comparing to the first time I came here.
1231
01:24:32,920 --> 01:24:35,750
We are spreading the gospel
of our Lord Jesus Christ
1232
01:24:37,629 --> 01:24:40,083
and the reception continue grow every day.
1233
01:24:41,400 --> 01:24:44,730
- Wow! I'm impressed.
1234
01:24:44,730 --> 01:24:46,130
But Mary, how did you do it?
1235
01:24:48,052 --> 01:24:52,657
The Okoyong people have been
killing our missionaries.
1236
01:24:53,791 --> 01:24:58,791
Many of them, yet you succeeded
in implementing your goals.
1237
01:25:02,940 --> 01:25:06,010
- Being thoroughly
knowledgeable of Efik culture,
1238
01:25:06,010 --> 01:25:11,010
traditions and practice
was an ice breaker for me.
1239
01:25:12,710 --> 01:25:13,650
- Yeah.
1240
01:25:13,650 --> 01:25:15,733
- I came here as one of them,
1241
01:25:17,396 --> 01:25:22,396
and they were really amazed
how I knew so much about them.
1242
01:25:26,000 --> 01:25:29,190
- This is wonderful! Do you know what?
1243
01:25:29,190 --> 01:25:32,393
God will continue to
bless you for your work.
1244
01:25:33,500 --> 01:25:35,230
- Thank you William.
1245
01:25:35,230 --> 01:25:40,210
- And I promise you this,
your work, your effort
1246
01:25:40,210 --> 01:25:44,060
must be known to the
entire British Empire.
1247
01:25:44,060 --> 01:25:46,700
And I promise you, I will see to that.
1248
01:25:46,700 --> 01:25:47,787
- God bless you, William.
1249
01:25:47,787 --> 01:25:50,110
- God bless you too Mary. Well done.
1250
01:25:50,110 --> 01:25:53,270
- You must be thirsty,
should I bring you water?
1251
01:25:53,270 --> 01:25:54,194
- Yeah, yeah! Please.
1252
01:25:54,194 --> 01:25:55,777
Thank you.
- Okay.
1253
01:26:01,065 --> 01:26:04,703
- Why do you always deny me my right?
1254
01:26:04,703 --> 01:26:07,370
(solemn music)
1255
01:26:22,359 --> 01:26:23,192
Why did I marry you?
1256
01:26:23,192 --> 01:26:24,721
(woman screaming)
1257
01:26:24,721 --> 01:26:26,220
Today, I will kill you in this house.
1258
01:26:26,220 --> 01:26:27,403
- Is anybody there?
1259
01:26:29,724 --> 01:26:30,890
- What do you want?
1260
01:26:30,890 --> 01:26:33,190
- I am Mary Slessor, a new Vice Consul
1261
01:26:33,190 --> 01:26:34,603
of Okoyong Territory.
1262
01:26:35,890 --> 01:26:36,790
May I come inside?
1263
01:26:36,790 --> 01:26:39,667
- No, don't come in.
1264
01:26:39,667 --> 01:26:42,880
- As the new Vice
Consul, one of my jobs is
1265
01:26:42,880 --> 01:26:45,270
to settle disputes and
prevent the breakdown
1266
01:26:45,270 --> 01:26:46,333
of law and order.
1267
01:26:47,890 --> 01:26:49,163
May I come inside?
1268
01:26:54,900 --> 01:26:56,283
May I come inside?
1269
01:26:59,780 --> 01:27:02,314
- Okay, you can come in.
1270
01:27:02,314 --> 01:27:04,897
(woman crying)
1271
01:27:08,230 --> 01:27:09,230
- What is your name?
1272
01:27:11,140 --> 01:27:12,240
- My name is Utuk.
1273
01:27:13,210 --> 01:27:14,250
- Utuk?
1274
01:27:14,250 --> 01:27:15,083
- Yes.
1275
01:27:15,083 --> 01:27:16,520
- I have received
several reports about you
1276
01:27:16,520 --> 01:27:17,993
from my church community.
1277
01:27:18,920 --> 01:27:21,193
You have been beating
your wife all this time.
1278
01:27:21,193 --> 01:27:23,853
She wanted to join the
church and you stopped her.
1279
01:27:25,350 --> 01:27:29,120
You've thrown away the twins she bore.
1280
01:27:29,120 --> 01:27:30,270
What is wrong with you?
1281
01:27:32,067 --> 01:27:34,354
- She is my wife.
1282
01:27:34,354 --> 01:27:36,710
I am the one who paid for her dowry,
1283
01:27:36,710 --> 01:27:40,080
so I can do with her
whatever that pleases me.
1284
01:27:40,080 --> 01:27:42,913
- She is your wife. She is not your slave!
1285
01:27:47,460 --> 01:27:50,213
- Who are the people telling
you all these things about me?
1286
01:27:51,180 --> 01:27:54,160
The ones who are against our gods?
1287
01:27:54,160 --> 01:27:56,607
The ones you call Christians huh?
1288
01:27:58,630 --> 01:28:01,660
The ones who go inside
the bush saving twins
1289
01:28:01,660 --> 01:28:04,063
that our gods command us not to.
1290
01:28:07,914 --> 01:28:09,664
These useless people!
1291
01:28:10,763 --> 01:28:13,210
These useless people!
1292
01:28:13,210 --> 01:28:16,010
- Why do you want to know how
the information got to me?
1293
01:28:17,560 --> 01:28:19,783
And no, Christians are not useless.
1294
01:28:23,274 --> 01:28:25,537
- I will teach them a lesson.
1295
01:28:25,537 --> 01:28:27,804
Because of them my wife refuses me
1296
01:28:27,804 --> 01:28:30,270
of my marital rights on Sundays.
1297
01:28:31,713 --> 01:28:33,963
I can no longer access her.
1298
01:28:36,794 --> 01:28:37,627
You!
1299
01:28:39,295 --> 01:28:42,603
- Utuk, if you beat her next time,
1300
01:28:43,460 --> 01:28:45,823
or you do any harm to my church people,
1301
01:28:46,700 --> 01:28:48,300
you see these policemen outside?
1302
01:28:49,230 --> 01:28:50,063
Check.
1303
01:28:52,640 --> 01:28:54,093
They will come for you, Utuk.
1304
01:28:55,230 --> 01:28:56,903
Think about changing your life.
1305
01:28:58,490 --> 01:29:00,820
Cry no more. He won't touch you again.
1306
01:29:00,820 --> 01:29:03,143
- Thank you (sobbing)
1307
01:29:04,706 --> 01:29:07,289
(gentle music)
1308
01:29:46,060 --> 01:29:48,175
Women of Okoyong Territory.
1309
01:29:48,175 --> 01:29:50,010
- [Women] Yes.
1310
01:29:50,010 --> 01:29:52,263
- Sorry for bringing you out this late!
1311
01:29:53,140 --> 01:29:55,653
But I have good news to share with you.
1312
01:29:59,350 --> 01:30:02,290
Today, I have someone
that is a woman like you,

1314

1315
01:30:06,668 --> 01:30:09,618
(women claps)
1316
01:30:09,618 --> 01:30:11,720
Today is a great day for women.
1317
01:30:11,720 --> 01:30:16,296
I will stop all the abuses
against women in this land
1318
01:30:16,296 --> 01:30:18,540

and to live happily are protected.
1321
01:30:27,098 --> 01:30:29,360
(women cheer)
- God be praised.
1322
01:30:29,360 --> 01:30:33,180
- My office is open to you at
any time for your requests,
1323
01:30:33,180 --> 01:30:36,093
reports and anything that
will make your lives better.
1324
01:30:38,870 --> 01:30:40,640
You are to enroll your
daughters in school,
1325
01:30:40,640 --> 01:30:42,033
not just your sons.
1326
01:30:45,310 --> 01:30:47,528
It is a great day in Okoyong.
1327
01:30:47,528 --> 01:30:49,323
Let us praise the Lord.
1328
01:30:49,323 --> 01:30:52,073
(women cheering)
1329
01:30:53,440 --> 01:30:54,913
Let us praise the Lord.
1330
01:30:55,910 --> 01:30:58,478
I will like you to sing
a song in your dialect.
1331
01:30:58,478 --> 01:31:02,811
(women singing in foreign language)
1332
01:31:19,678 --> 01:31:23,005
(women crying)
1333
01:31:23,005 --> 01:31:26,922
(speaking in foreign language)
1334
01:31:32,087 --> 01:31:35,170
- Itoro, my brother, my only brother.
1335
01:31:42,007 --> 01:31:44,174
The indefatigable warrior!
1336
01:31:46,108 --> 01:31:47,775
The tireless worker.
1337
01:31:49,866 --> 01:31:54,123
Itoro, you fought a good fight,
1338
01:31:55,500 --> 01:32:00,500
but the cold arms of death
snatched you away from me.
1339
01:32:03,825 --> 01:32:06,575
Itoro, Itoro, you have succumbed,
1340
01:32:12,710 --> 01:32:16,363
succumbed to the cold
hands of death, my brother.
1341
01:32:19,334 --> 01:32:20,584
Keep the faith.
1342
01:32:24,102 --> 01:32:29,102
Be strong brother, for I know
we shall meet to part no more.
1343
01:32:33,584 --> 01:32:38,036
(speaking in foreign language)
1344
01:32:38,036 --> 01:32:38,869
Itoro!
1345
01:32:42,602 --> 01:32:47,602
Tell me, tell me how do
I give my only brother
1346
01:32:55,233 --> 01:32:56,816
a befitting burial.
1347
01:32:58,292 --> 01:33:01,875
His only servant ran
away when he found out
1348
01:33:06,610 --> 01:33:08,963
that he would not survive
through the night.
1349
01:33:10,710 --> 01:33:15,710
No, my brother cannot
be deprived of a servant
1350
01:33:18,621 --> 01:33:20,221
in the world he is in right now.
1351
01:33:24,821 --> 01:33:29,821
(sobbing) His wife died only last month
1352
01:33:32,201 --> 01:33:36,073
and she has gone ahead of him.
1353
01:33:38,252 --> 01:33:39,990
Huh, Itoro!
1354
01:33:39,990 --> 01:33:40,823
- It's okay.
1355
01:33:40,823 --> 01:33:42,130
- It's okay.
1356
01:33:42,130 --> 01:33:43,023
It's okay.
1357
01:33:44,940 --> 01:33:47,700
Please be a man. It's okay.
1358
01:33:47,700 --> 01:33:48,533
Be a man.
1359
01:33:51,570 --> 01:33:55,033
The white woman, I was
told she is now living
1360
01:33:55,033 --> 01:33:56,616
at Okoyong village.
1361
01:33:58,247 --> 01:34:02,152
As for the burial,
there won't be much fuss
1362
01:34:02,152 --> 01:34:05,203
in getting a replacement servant, yes.
1363
01:34:10,893 --> 01:34:12,880
- How do we get one?
1364
01:34:15,125 --> 01:34:17,875
How do we get one for my brother?
1365
01:34:18,779 --> 01:34:20,862
- I think I have an idea.
1366
01:34:22,426 --> 01:34:24,009
We will kidnap one.
1367
01:34:25,596 --> 01:34:26,429
- Yes.
1368
01:34:28,884 --> 01:34:29,717
- Itoro!
1369
01:34:32,284 --> 01:34:34,867
(women crying)
1370
01:34:36,559 --> 01:34:41,559
Itoro! Itoro! (speaking
in foreign language)
1371
01:34:47,244 --> 01:34:49,994
(ominous music)
1372
01:35:37,975 --> 01:35:40,475
(man screams)
1373
01:36:15,135 --> 01:36:16,615
- [Man] Praise the Lord.
1374
01:36:16,615 --> 01:36:18,596
- [Church] Alleluia.
1375
01:36:18,596 --> 01:36:20,023

- [Church] Hallelujah.
1377
01:36:22,977 --> 01:36:27,977
- Are we not happy that God
sent us Sister Mary Slessor?
1378
01:36:27,998 --> 01:36:28,831
Are we not?
1379
01:36:28,831 --> 01:36:29,763
- [Church] We are.
1380
01:36:29,763 --> 01:36:30,860
- [Woman] Thank you Jesus.
1381
01:36:30,860 --> 01:36:33,700
- Can't you see the good and
the changes she has brought
1382
01:36:33,700 --> 01:36:34,533
to our people?
1383
01:36:36,370 --> 01:36:39,640
Do we have brothers and
sisters from Okoyong Kingdom
1384
01:36:39,640 --> 01:36:41,570
in our midst today?
1385
01:36:41,570 --> 01:36:42,820

1386
01:36:44,633 --> 01:36:49,345

1388
01:36:51,630 --> 01:36:55,420
- We thank Jesus for
saving us from darkness
1389
01:36:55,420 --> 01:36:58,073
and evil of twins killing
and human sacrifice.
1390
01:36:58,073 --> 01:37:01,137
- [Church] Thank you, Jesus!
1391
01:37:01,137 --> 01:37:03,268

1392

1408
01:37:46,970 --> 01:37:47,803
our Savior.
1409
01:37:48,646 --> 01:37:51,090
He sent Sister Mary six years ago
1410
01:37:51,090 --> 01:37:53,793
to save my children six years ago.
1411
01:37:53,793 --> 01:37:54,626
- [Church] Wow!
1412
01:37:54,626 --> 01:37:57,209
(church claps)
1413
01:38:00,030 --> 01:38:02,647
Look at them now, they are big,
1414
01:38:02,647 --> 01:38:04,890
and they give me joy every day.
1415
01:38:04,890 --> 01:38:08,137
They are not and never evil children
1416
01:38:08,137 --> 01:38:10,750
as our people wrongly believe.
1417
01:38:10,750 --> 01:38:12,615
They are God's children.
1418
01:38:12,615 --> 01:38:15,023
Praise God.
1419
01:38:15,023 --> 01:38:17,116

- [Church] Hallelujah.
1422
01:38:21,395 --> 01:38:24,228
(church cheering)
1423
01:38:25,843 --> 01:38:28,530
- [Narrator] Slessor was
one of the brain behind
1424
01:38:28,530 --> 01:38:32,850
the establishment of the Hope
Waddell Training Institute
1425
01:38:32,850 --> 01:38:34,350
in Calabar.
1426
01:38:34,350 --> 01:38:38,900
Which provided practical
vocational training to Efiks.
1427
01:38:38,900 --> 01:38:42,843
This helped to enlighten
them on a number of things.
1428
01:38:43,732 --> 01:38:47,770
Slessor's impact went
beyond Calabar to a town
1429
01:38:47,770 --> 01:38:51,630
on the far west of
Calabar, called Arochukwu,
1430
01:38:51,630 --> 01:38:56,590
the present day Abia State,
Southeastern Nigeria.
1431
01:38:56,590 --> 01:39:00,610
Calabar and Arochukwu shared some customs
1432
01:39:00,610 --> 01:39:04,340
and the killing of twins was one of them.
1433
01:39:04,340 --> 01:39:06,890
And as the practice stopped in Calabar,
1434
01:39:06,890 --> 01:39:09,717
so did it in Arochukwu.
1435
01:39:10,791 --> 01:39:14,681
Slessor's missionary work
in Okoyong earned her
1436
01:39:14,681 --> 01:39:16,583
the Efik nickname, Ogbukayong,
1437
01:39:17,770 --> 01:39:20,593
which means Queen of Okoyong.
1438
01:39:21,550 --> 01:39:25,970
She died on the 13th of January, 1915
1439
01:39:25,970 --> 01:39:28,393
and she was buried in Calabar.
1440
01:39:29,270 --> 01:39:33,180
A number of projects
are named in her honor,
1441
01:39:33,180 --> 01:39:37,670
some of which are Mary
Slessor Road in Calabar,
1442
01:39:37,670 --> 01:39:42,100
Mary Slessor Roundabout,
Mary Slessor Church.
1443
01:39:42,100 --> 01:39:45,020
Statues of her carrying twins
1444
01:39:45,020 --> 01:39:47,970
at various location in Calabar.
1445
01:39:47,970 --> 01:39:52,200
A female hostel in
University of Nigeria Nsukka,
1446
01:39:52,200 --> 01:39:54,380
is named after her.
1447
01:39:54,380 --> 01:39:59,380
And even in Ghana, a girls
hostel, Slessor's House,
1448
01:39:59,660 --> 01:40:03,717
was named after her in
Achimota School, Ghana.
1449
01:40:06,670 --> 01:40:09,253
(upbeat music)
1450
01:40:30,270 --> 01:40:34,603
(woman singing in foreign language)
