Answer:
It was a movie titled; The Legend of Princess Inikpi
The movie is centered around a Kingdom called the Igala Kingdom that was on the brink of a war with the Fulani Tribe and the Igala tribe was outnumbered and needed drastic help. The Chief priest had to consult the gods of the land to seek help as regards the war that was to come.
The message from the gods was that the Kings daughter (Princess Inikpi) had to be sacrificed for the victory of the Igala People along-side 7 of her maidens.
Now, there was an outburst of drama and inconsistency as regards the mothers approval of such act but regardless, the Princess herself agreed to the bidding.
The King gave the order to the chief priest and preparations begun. The sacrifice ceremony began and the Chief Priest insisted they all be buried together after beheading the servants.
The sacrifice happened and they were all put in the hole. This act bestowed the Igala warriors with the gift of Invincibility while fighting against their enemies (Fulani Tribe) and it helped them win the war.
(The artistic vision I noticed)
- While the servants were being beheaded, I noticed an almost irregular blood spurge like a dam busted open which I believe was a slight production error. They ought to have noticed that,
- Finally, I noticed the singular hole dug out for all of these people to be buried was not more that 4 feet deep and from an artistic point of view, that's almost an impossibility except those people were chopped into pieces which was not the case.
In expressing Art, one must be critical with it especially in Visual Expressions as the human mind is a natural critique and will not fail to notice irregularities in Artistic Displays.
It is described as brief and realistic.
Hope this helps.Have a wonderful day.
