    This film is long overdue..an important part of our history that needs to be told and seen in the 21st century..watch out for the British who would try to saboatage the international marketability of the final product..hope he does a solid job and gets the best Actors within and outside the shores of Nigeria..can't wait!!..
    Kudos to the Executive Producer..this is what so called Big Boys and Girls should be doing instead of showing their off their perishables...New Range or Shopping in Milan/Paris..names concealed to protect the innocent..

    At least the funds they have looted from the Nigerian treasury is being spent to promote Benin heritage.It is better than them spending it on useless jewelery and vacation resort that the oyinbo will be thinking Nigerians are fools to be allowing their leaders milk them dry while majority are suffering.It is good she put the loot from her husband to promote her heritage.

    Lancelot is a good story teller, and with enough funds i am confident this movie will be an epic success..Benin has a rich cultural heritage..
