Every year the most beautiful girl will be sacrificed to the Python God. But what really happens is that all the priests rape her, and then murder her, so that she cannot tell that the python god does not exist. When a girl named Sia is the next to be sacrificed, she hides in the house of the village idiot, a man who goes around shouting hyper-aggressive criticisms against everything. Sia is found by the soldiers and the village idiot is murdered. But the army commander had for some time prepared a revolt against the emperor. Now he murders the emperor and all the priests, thereby saving Sia from being raped. His plan is to make Sia's boyfriend the new emperor, an appointment to be justified by the lie that that boy had murdered the python god. At the same time Sia should be empress. However, Sia refuses to lie about what happened. Therefore she is declared a lunatic. In turn she develops exactly the same kind of behaviour as the village idiot had shown.

Review :

Epic tale of monsters and power gone awry

This is an epic tale of political power gone awry in a mythical African kingdom. The intrigue of the film moves at a slower pace probably for most American audiences in the 1st 1/4 of the film but moves quicker the rest of the time. It may remind you of Othello with the lies, politics and deceit. The film originating in Burkino Faso is, of course, beautiful in color. The pace may indeed be a result of cultural differences in general filmmaking. But this is a tale with a story that is worth being told and one that makes a decided connection to present times.
